abstract
For the periodic sphaleron potential in the electroweak theory, we find the one-dimensional time-independent Schr\"{o}dinger equation with the Chern-Simons number as the coordinate, construct the Bloch wave function and determine the corresponding conducting (pass) band structure. We show that the baryon-lepton number violating processes can take place without the exponential tunneling suppression (at zero temperature) at energies around and above the barrier height (sphaleron energy) at 9.0 TeV. Phenomenologically, probable detection of such processes at LHC is discussed.

Impact of dimension-8 SMEFT operators on baryogenesis via sphaleron decoupling
Five of seven CP-violating dimension-8 SMEFT operators can individually reproduce the observed baryon asymmetry, with effective new-physics scales near 3-7 TeV.
