abstract

We estimate the chirality of the cosmological medium due to parity violating decays of standard model particles, focusing on the example of tau leptons. The non-trivial chirality is however too small to make a significant contribution to the cosmological magnetic field via the chiral-magnetic effect.

  • Spectra of magnetic fields from electroweak symmetry breaking astro-ph.CO · 2024-12-01 · conditional · none · ref 28 · internal anchor

    Magnetic fields generated at electroweak symmetry breaking have a k^4 energy spectrum, not k^3 as previously claimed, according to non-dynamical Kibble-mechanism simulations.
