Numerical Tools for Electroweak Phase Transition
Abstrak
The electroweak phase transition serves as a crucial portal to explore physics beyond the Standard Model, with profound implications for gravitational waves, baryogenesis, dark matter, and vacuum stability. We review the computational workflow for analyzing cosmological phase transitions, which includes constructing the finite-temperature effective potential, identifying possible phases, tracing transition history, calculating transition rates, milestone temperatures, and thermal parameters, as well as the numerical tools developed for each step. We compare the functionalities, strategies, and applicable scopes of these tools, aiming to provide a practical guide that helps researchers select the most appropriate computational resources for their studies.
