The properties of the critical point in electroweak theory

We study the properties of the electroweak theory in the vicinity of the critical point --- the endpoint of the first order phase transition line that exists in a wide class of theories, including the Standard Model and a part of the parameter space of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We find that the critical point belongs to the 3d Ising universality class. The endpoint in the Standard Model is located at the Higgs mass below the existing experimental lower bound, implying that there is no electroweak phase transition in this theory.

The Phase Diagram of Three-Dimensional SU(3) + Adjoint Higgs Theory

We study the phase diagram of the three-dimensional SU(3)+adjoint Higgs theory with lattice Monte Carlo simulations. A critical line consisting of a first order line, a tricritical point and a second order line, divides the phase diagram into two parts distinguished by =0 and /=0. The location and the type of the critical line are determined by measuring the condensates and , and the masses of scalar and vector excitations. Although in principle there can be different types of broken phases, corresponding perturbatively to unbroken SU(2)xU(1) or U(1)xU(1) symmetries, we find that dynamically only the broken phase with SU(2)xU(1)-like properties is realized. The relation of the phase diagram to 4d finite temperature QCD is discussed.

The universal properties of the electroweak phase transition

The first order electroweak phase transition in the Standard Model turns into a regular cross-over at a critical Higgs mass m_{H,c} approximately 75 GeV. At the critical point the transition is of second order. We make a detailed investigation of the critical properties of the electroweak theory at the critical point, and we find that the transition falls into the 3d Ising universality class. The continuum limit extrapolation of the critical Higgs mass is m_{H,c} = 72(2) GeV, which implies that there is no electroweak phase transition in the Standard Model.

The Ising model universality of the electroweak theory

Lattice simulations have shown that the first order electroweak phase transition turns into a regular cross-over at a critical Higgs mass m_{H,c}. We have developed a method which enables us to make a detailed investigation of the critical properties of the electroweak theory at m_{H,c}. We find that the transition falls into the 3d Ising universality class. The continuum limit extrapolation of the critical Higgs mass is m_{H,c} = 72(2) GeV, which implies that there is no electroweak phase transition in the Standard Model.

The universality class of the electroweak theory

We study the universality class and critical properties of the electroweak theory at finite temperature. Such critical behaviour is found near the endpoint m_H=m_{H,c} of the line of first order electroweak phase transitions in a wide class of theories, including the Standard Model (SM) and a part of the parameter space of the Minimal Sypersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We find that the location of the endpoint corresponds to the Higgs mass m_{H,c} = 72(2) GeV in the SM with sin^2 theta_W = 0, and m_{H,c} < 80 GeV with sin^2 theta_W = 0.23. As experimentally m_H > 88 GeV, there is no electroweak phase transition in the SM. We compute the corresponding critical indices and provide strong evidence that the phase transitions near the endpoint fall into the three dimensional Ising universality class.
