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.

Theory and phenomenology of two-Higgs-doublet models

TL;DR: In this article, theoretical and phenomenological aspects of two-Higgs-doublet extensions of the Standard Model are discussed and a careful study of spontaneous CP violation is presented, including an analysis of the conditions which have to be satisfied in order for a vacuum to violate CP.

Higgs mass and vacuum stability in the Standard Model at NNLO

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the first complete next-to-next-toleading order analysis of the Standard Model Higgs potential, showing that at the Planck scale, absolute stability of the potential is not guaranteed at 98% C.L. for Mh < 126 GeV.

The anatomy of electroweak symmetry breaking: Tome I: The Higgs boson in the Standard Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking and the fundamental properties of the Higgs particle of the Standard Model and its decay modes and production mechanisms at hadron colliders and at future lepton colliders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigating the near-criticality of the Higgs boson

TL;DR: In this article, the parameters of the Higgs potential, the top Yukawa coupling and the electroweak gauge couplings were extracted from data with full 2-loop NNLO precision.

Testing the standard model by precise determinations of W ± and Z masses

TL;DR: The standard model's predictions for W, Z and Higgs-boson, and their interdependence are analyzed and constraints from neutral-current phenomenology are discussed.

How Accurately Can We Estimate the Proton Lifetime in an SU(5) Grand Unified Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the theoretical uncertainties in the prediction of the proton lifetime in the simplest SU(5) model were reduced to an uncertainty reflecting our lack of precise knowledge of the QCD coupling constant, of the mass of color Higgs' bosons, and of the Proton wave function at the origin.

Realization of new inflation.

TL;DR: It is argued that there are many models in which the universe enters a period of exponential expansion required for an inflationary cosmology, and the conditions for inflation are satisfied if the scale of symmetry breaking is of the order of the Planck scale.

Cosmological lower bound on the Higgs-boson mass

TL;DR: In this paper, the Weinberg-Salam Higgs boson mass m/sub H/> or approx. = 9 GeV is assumed to have a symmetry-breaking phase transition only after extreme supercooling, resulting in too high a ratio of entropy to baryon number.
Journal ArticleDOI

Can black holes nucleate vacuum phase transitions

TL;DR: It thus appears that a black hole can act as an effective nucleation center for a first-order vacuum phase transition and it will be more difficult (require more ``fine-tuning'' of the potential) than was previously believed to achieve supercooling of a false-vacuum state.
