Models with radiative symmetry breaking typically feature strongly supercooled first-order phase transitions, which result in an observable stochastic gravitational wave background. In this work, we analyse the role of higher order thermal corrections for these transitions, applying high-temperature dimensional reduction to a theory with dimensional transmutation. In particular, we study to what extent high-temperature effective field theories (3D EFT) can be used. We find that despite significant supercooling down from the critical temperature, the high-temperature expansion for the bubble nucleation rate can be applied using the 3D EFT framework, and we point out challenges in the EFT description. We compare our findings to previous studies, and find that the next-to-leading order corrections obtained in this work have a significant effect on the predictions for GW observables, motivating a further exploration of higher order thermal effects.

Hot news on the phase structure of the SMEFT
A full O(g^4) dimensional reduction of the dimension-six SMEFT shows that the top-Higgs operator O_tphi can trigger a first-order electroweak phase transition with zero (phi-dagger phi)^3 coupling at zero temperature.

An Effective Sphaleron Awakens
A consistent 3D EFT computation of the Higgs phase sphaleron rate yields universal baryon preservation bounds x ≈ 0.025 (strong) and x ≈ 0.036 (weak), and shows two-loop corrections eliminate strong one-step transitio...

Phase Transitions in Dimensional Reduction up to Three Loops
In a toy complex-scalar model, 1-loop dimension-6 matching corrections compete with 2-loop quartic corrections and dominate 3-loop thermal-mass corrections for strong phase transitions.

Bubble wall dynamics from nonequilibrium quantum field theory
The conventional kinetic equation of motion for bubble walls is incomplete, missing a condensate self-energy term that produces additional friction from particle production, mixing, and transition radiation.

Domain Walls From Confining Bubbles: $SU(N_{c})$ Yang Mills at Finite $\theta$
A nonzero theta angle weakens supercooling in SU(Nc) Yang-Mills confinement and makes any resulting domain-wall gravitational-wave signal invisible except under severe fine-tuning.

Theoretical uncertainties in reconstructing model parameters with gravitational waves from supercooled phase transitions
In the conformal U(1)_X model, the daisy-resummed nucleation scheme shifts LISA-reconstructed gauge couplings by O(10%) relative to the NLO effective-field-theory result, an order of magnitude above the Fisher-matrix ...

Hard thermal contributions to phase transition observables at NNLO
Three-loop thermal masses and two-loop quartic couplings complete the O(g^6) high-temperature EFT of U(1) and SU(N) gauge-Higgs models, with a missing contribution identified in a known three-loop master integral.

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 supercooled phase transitions in conformal Majoron models of neutrino mass
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.

The price for monopole dark matter
Dark matter can consist of 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles in a dark SU(2) sector, but only in a narrow window with m_M ≳ 10^8 GeV, near-bound dark radiation, and possibly detectable gravitational waves.

Perturbative gravitational wave predictions for the real-scalar extended Standard Model
At next-to-next-to-leading order, gravitational wave predictions for the real-scalar singlet extension of the Standard Model appear to converge for typical parameters, but break down for the strongest, observable signals.

Supercooled Phase Transitions with Radiative Symmetry Breaking
Supercooled phase transitions from radiative symmetry breaking can be described, at leading and next-to-leading order, by formulas depending only on three or four parameters (χ0, β̄, g, and g̃ at NLO).
