We present a new method for renormalisation group improvement of the effective potential of a quantum field theory with an arbitrary number of scalar fields. The method amounts to solving the renormalisation group equation for the effective potential with the boundary conditions chosen on the hypersurface where quantum corrections vanish. This hypersurface is defined through a suitable choice of a field-dependent value for the renormalisation scale. The method can be applied to any order in perturbation theory and it is a generalisation of the standard procedure valid for the one-field case. In our method, however, the choice of the renormalisation scale does not eliminate individual logarithmic terms but rather the entire loop corrections to the effective potential. It allows us to evaluate the improved effective potential for arbitrary values of the scalar fields using the tree-level potential with running coupling constants as long as they remain perturbative. This opens the possibility of studying various applications which require an analysis of multi-field effective potentials across different energy scales. In particular, the issue of stability of the scalar potential can be easily studied beyond tree level.

  1. Supercooled phase transitions in conformal dark sectors explain NANOGrav data

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A conformal dark U(1)' sector undergoing a strongly supercooled first-order phase transition can fit the NANOGrav 15-year gravitational wave background.

  2. Gravitational waves from supercooled phase transitions in conformal Majoron models of neutrino mass

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A detailed scan of conformal U(1)' Majoron models finds that supercooled phase transitions produce gravitational waves detectable by LIGO, LISA, and ET, and that current null data already exclude part of the parameter space.

    False-vacuum collapse during first-order phase transitions can form PBHs and emit GWs across a broad parameter range, and MeV-scale classically conformal U(1)_{B-L} symmetry breaking has the largest region where both ...
