We study the irrotational velocity spectra induced in a fluid during a first-order phase transition in the radiation-dominated era. Interactions of the scalar broken-phase bubbles with the fluid generate irrotational velocity and enthalpy profiles which are, together with the statistical time distribution of bubble nucleation and collision, predictive of the gravitational wave spectrum...
Using semi-analytical models, we investigate the power spectrum of gravitational waves generated by sound waves in the plasma during a first-order phase transition in new unexplored scenarios. (i) The phase transition is accompanied by a change of the equation of state from that of pure radiation. This causes the peak of the spectrum to shift to smaller frequencies as the equation of state...
For a wide range of scenarios, the generation of gravitational waves (GWs) from cosmological first-order phase transitions is believed to be dominated by sound waves. Understanding their decay through acoustic turbulence is an important factor in determining the overall intensity of the GW signal. We have simulated acoustic turbulence numerically in three dimensions to study its decay...
The gravitational wave spectrum from sound wave contributions is typically modeled as a double-broken power law with fixed spectral slopes. However, the intermediate slope depends on phase transition parameters, which can help resolve degeneracies when reconstructing these parameters. To improve gravitational wave predictions, we provide an analytic form of this parameter dependence, derived...
In this talk, I will investigate the formation of Primordial Black Holes as the result of the collapse of energy density fluctuations originating from supercooled first-order phase transitions. I will present the results of a simplified approach, where the energy density fluctuations are evolved within the limit of flat FRW Universe. I will show how energy density fluctuations modify the...
In the early Universe, during a phase transition, the surrounding plasma is subjected to a fluid motion sourcing gravitational waves. This fluid motion can be composed of compressional and vortical motions. Most of the time, they are considered distinct and studied independently. However, by analyzing the UETC of the anisotropic stresses, a mixed term combining vortical and compressional...
This talk is consists of two parts. In the first part I will talk about curvature perturbation produced in very strong first-order phase transitions. I will first explain super-hubble curvature perturbation based on 2311.16222, and then move on to hubble-scale curvature perturbation based on 2503.01962. In the second part I change the topic and talk about a new type of formulation of quantum...
