Seyda Ipek (UC, Irvine) “Early Confinement of QCD and Baryogenesis”

Seminar Organizer


Event Details


ABSTRACT:

Generally we do not think about QCD when we try to explain the matter–antimatter asymmetry of the universe. I will describe a model where we raise the QCD confinement scale. This can generate a first-order phase transition and triggers electroweak breaking. This provides a baryogenesis scenario with many other cosmological consequences.generated in a very simple fashion. I will also discuss low and high energy constraints/signatures in this framework.
