It is shown that eight-quark interactions, which are needed to stabilize the ground state of the combined three flavor Nambu -- Jona-Lasinio and 't Hooft Lagrangians, play also an important role in determining the critical temperature at which transitions occur from the dynamically broken chiral phase to the symmetric phase.

  1. CP-violating multi-field phase transitions and gravitational waves in a hidden NJL sector

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Multi-field CP-violating phase transitions in a hidden NJL sector produce undetectable stochastic gravitational waves but remain cosmologically viable due to prompt domain wall collapse.

  2. CP-violating multi-field phase transitions and gravitational waves in a hidden NJL sector

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Multi-field tunneling analysis in a CP-violating NJL model yields a slow transition (β/H ~ 100) whose stochastic gravitational-wave signal is detectable by μAres and insensitive to the CP angle.
