abstract
We propose a new scenario of leptogenesis, which is triggered by a first-order phase transition (FOPT). The right-handed neutrinos (RHNs) are massless in the old vacuum, while they acquire a mass in the new vacuum bubbles, and the mass gap is huge compared with the FOPT temperature. The ultra-relativistic bubble walls sweep the RHNs into the bubbles, where the RHNs experience fast decay and generate the lepton asymmetry, which is further converted to the baryon asymmetry of the Universe (BAU). Since the RHNs are out of equilibrium inside the bubble, the generated BAU does not suffer from the thermal bath washout. We first discuss the general feature of such a FOPT leptogenesis mechanism, and then realize it in an extended $B-L$ model. The gravitational waves from $U(1)_{B-L}$ breaking could be detected at the future interferometers.

DW-genesis: baryon number from domain wall network collapse
Collapsing axionic domain walls can produce the baryon asymmetry via spontaneous baryogenesis, with a maximum yield set by the annihilation temperature, but minimal post-inflationary realisations suffer a suppression ...

Constraining the heavy leptophilic neutral gauge bosons through the $Z\to\ell^+\ell^-$, $W^\pm\to\ell^\pm\nu_\ell$, and $h\to\ell^+\ell^-$ decays
One-loop corrections to W/Z/h leptonic widths exclude heavy leptophilic Z' regions (M ≳ O(1) TeV, g' ≳ 0.4) beyond LEP-2 and neutrino-trident limits.

Custodial Naturalness
Custodial Naturalness uses classical scale invariance plus a custodial SO(6) symmetry to make the Higgs a naturally light pseudo-Goldstone boson, with testable new particle predictions.

What happens when supercooling is terminated by curvature flipping of the effective potential?
Supercooling terminated by curvature flipping still proceeds by bubble nucleation and expansion, not by smooth phase mixing, according to 3D lattice simulations.

Gravitational waves from seesaw assisted collapsing domain walls
Right-handed-neutrino couplings generate the energy bias that collapses Z2 domain walls, linking the type-I seesaw mass scale to observable gravitational-wave peaks and to resonant leptogenesis.

Populating dark sectors with relativistic bubble walls
Relativistic bubble walls can pair-produce dark matter much heavier than the phase transition scale, which then free-streams as warm dark matter.
