abstract

In this paper, we study the significance of the U$_\textrm{Y}$(1) Chern-Simons term in general, and its baryonic contribution in particular, for the evolution of the matter asymmetries and the hypermagnetic field in the temperature range $100$GeV$\leq T \leq 10$TeV. We show that an initial helical hypermagnetic field, denoted by $B_Y^{(0)}$, can grow matter asymmetries from zero initial value. However, the growth which is initially quadratic with respect to $B_Y^{(0)}$, saturates for values larger than a critical value. The inclusion of the baryonic contribution reduces this critical value, leading to smaller final matter asymmetries. Meanwhile, $B_Y(T_{EW})$ becomes slightly larger than $B_Y^{(0)}$. In the absence of the U$_\textrm{Y}$(1) Chern-Simons term, the final values of matter asymmetries grow without saturation. Conversely, we show that an initial matter asymmetry can grow an initial seed of hypermagnetic field, provided the Chern-Simons term is taken into account. The growth process saturates when the matter asymmetry drops abruptly. When the baryonic contribution is included, the saturation occurs at an earlier time, and $B_Y (T_{EW})$ becomes larger. We also show the results can be within the acceptable range of present day data, provided the inverse cascade process is also taken into account.

    A nonzero primordial vorticity seeds a hypermagnetic field from zero in the symmetric phase; the chiral magnetic effect then amplifies it and converts lepton into baryon asymmetry.
