In many extensions of the Standard Model, the electroweak transition is first order - in some cases, strongly so. The ensuing phase transition would result in collisions of bubbles of the new Higgs phase. These collisions, and the associated interactions of sound waves in the plasma, are substantial sources of gravitational waves. For a phase transition at or around the electroweak scale,...
The 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) marked the completion of the Standard Model (SM). Since then the experiments have collected more than ten times the amount of data, which are being used to carefully map the properties of the Higgs boson and to search for additional scalars. Looking ahead, one of the main goals of the...
