We study the electroweak phase transition in the minimal extension of the Standard Model: an extra complex singlet with zero vacuum expectation value. The first-order phase transition is strengthened by the cubic term triggered in the one-loop effective potential by the extra boson. Plasma effects are considered to leading order: they shield the cubic terms and weaken the first-order phase transition. We find a region in the parameter space where baryon asymmetry washout is avoided for Higgs masses consistent with present experimental bounds. However in that region the theory becomes non-perturbative for scales higher than $10^{10}\ GeV$.

    hep-ph 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A dimension-six operator |H|^2|phi|^4 in a U(1)_D singlet extension relaxes the usual Higgs-portal and mixing-angle correlation, enabling strong first-order electroweak phase transitions driven primarily by the singlet VEV.
