abstract
We compute the complete one-loop finite temperature effective potential for electroweak symmetry breaking in the Standard Model with a Higgs potential supplemented by higher dimensional operators as generated for instance in composite Higgs and Little Higgs models. We detail the resolution of several issues that arise, such as the cancellation of infrared divergences at higher order and imaginary contributions to the potential. We follow the dynamics of the phase transition, including the nucleation of bubbles and the effects of supercooling. We characterize the region of parameter space consistent with a strong first-order phase transition which may be relevant to electroweak baryogenesis. Finally, we investigate the prospects of present and future gravity wave detectors to see the effects of a strong first-order electroweak phase transition.

A dimension-six operator |H|^2|phi|^4 in a U(1)_D singlet extension relaxes the usual Higgs-portal and mixing-angle correlation, enabling strong first-order electroweak phase transitions driven primarily by the singlet VEV.
Simulations show TianQin and LISA can reconstruct the dimension-six model parameter Λ to sub-percent statistical precision for strong signals using Fisher, Bayesian sampling, and machine learning on data with noise and foregrounds.
Updated LISA detection prospects for gravitational waves from phase transitions are derived from state-of-the-art sound-wave simulations, with a new web tool PTPlot provided for parameter scans.
