Electroweak Higgs Potentials and Vacuum Stability

Marc Sher
- 01 Aug 1989 - 
- Vol. 179, pp 273-418
TLDR
In this article, the method of calculating radiative corrections to the scalar potentials is reviewed, with an emphasis on renormalization group improvement of the potential, and the results are then applied to the standard model to derive stringent bounds on Higgs and fermion passes.

Simple Mass Estimate for Resonance(s) being 6 Top plus 6 Anti top Bound states and Combinations thereof

TL;DR: In this paper, the mass of the top-yukawa coupling has been derived from the multiple point principle and the Higgs Yukawa potential was approximated by a step function.

The Higgs Boson and the Cosmos

Marco Zatta
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the effects of renormalizable BSM operators on the Higgs dynamics in the early universe and show that stabilization can be obtained in models of inflation if the existence of Higgs-inflaton couplings or non-minimal coupling with gravity.

Early-Time Measure in Eternal Inflation

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that vacua that maximize their space-time volume at early times have maximal ever-hitting probability, minimal mean first-passage time, and minimal decay rate.

Is Higgsium a possibility in 2HDMs

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the possibility of a Higgs-Higgs bound state in the two Higgs doublet model and investigated the effect of dimension six operators, generated by new physics at a scale of a few TeV, on the self-couplings of the heavy CP even scalar field.

Higgs vacuum stability and inflationary dynamics after BICEP2 and PLANCK dust polarisation data

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple particle physics model which can simultaneously keep the vacuum of the theory stable and yield high-scale inflation successfully was proposed. But this model is not suitable for the early universe dynamics according to the Big Bang model.

Inflationary universe: A possible solution to the horizon and flatness problems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a model of hot big-bang cosmology where the early universe is assumed to be highly homogeneous, in spite of the fact that separated regions were causally disconnected (horizon problem).

CP Conservation in the Presence of Pseudoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give an explanation of the conservation of strong interactions which includes the effects of pseudoparticles, and they find it is a natural result for any theory where at least one flavor of fermion acquires its mass through a Yukawa coupling to a scalar field which has nonvanishing vacuum expectation value.

CP Violation in the Renormalizable Theory of Weak Interaction

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that no CP-violating interactions exist in the quartet scheme without introducing any other new fields, and that the strong interaction must be chiral SU ( 4) X SU( 4) invariant as precisely as the conservation of the third component of the iso-spin.

A new inflationary universe scenario: A possible solution of the horizon, flatness, homogeneity, isotropy and primordial monopole problems

TL;DR: A new inflationary universe scenario is suggested in this paper, which is free of the shortcomings of the previous one and provides a possible solution of the horizon, flatness, homogeneity and isotropy problems in cosmology.
