Annihilation of electroweak dumbbells
read the original abstract
We study the annihilation of electroweak dumbbells and the dependence of their dynamics on initial dumbbell length and twist. Untwisted dumbbells decay rapidly while maximally twisted dumbbells collapse to form a compact sphaleron-like object, before decaying into radiation. The decay products of a dumbbell include electromagnetic magnetic fields with energy that is a few percent of the initial energy. The magnetic field from the decay of twisted dumbbells carries magnetic helicity with magnitude that depends on the twist, and handedness that depends on the decay pathway.

Energy spectrum of magnetic fields from electroweak symmetry breaking
An analytic energy spectrum for magnetic fields from electroweak symmetry breaking is obtained from random inhomogeneous Higgs configurations and validated with continuous-field simulations.
