A stochastic background of gravitational waves can be generated during a cosmological first order phase transition, at least by two distinct mechanisms: collisions of true vacuum bubbles and turbulence in the cosmic fluid. I compare these two contributions, analyzing their relative importance for a generic phase transition. In particular, a first order electroweak phase transition is expected to generate a gravitational wave signal peaked at a frequency which today falls just within the band of the planned space interferometer LISA. For this transition, I find constraints for the relevant parameters in order to produce a signal within the reach of the sensitivity of LISA. The result is that the transition must be strongly first order, alpha > 0.2. In this regime the signal coming from turbulence dominates over that from colliding bubbles.

  1. Gravitational Waves from Confinement in $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills Theory

    hep-ph 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For pure SU(N) Yang-Mills dark sectors, confinement transitions produce gravitational waves too weak for LISA, ET, CE, DECIGO or BBO, with peak amplitude at N≈20 and a large-N decay h²Ω_peak ∝ N^{-14/3}.

  2. Fermi-ball in a multicomponent dark matter framework and its gravitational wave signatures

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In a two-component dark matter model, a first-order phase transition can produce Fermi-balls and gravitational waves, with Fermi-balls potentially contributing up to about 30% of the dark matter relic density.

  3. A Non-Holomorphic Modular $A_4$ Framework for Resonant Leptogenesis with Gravitational Wave Signatures

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A non-holomorphic modular A4 seesaw model yields quasi-degenerate right-handed neutrinos, enabling resonant leptogenesis at ~10^6 GeV and a double-peaked gravitational-wave signature.

  4. Gravitational waves from a first-order phase transition of the inflaton

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A single non-minimally coupled dark Higgs can drive both inflation and a first-order phase transition whose gravitational waves fall within the reach of planned experiments.

  5. Observable CMB B-modes from Cosmological Phase Transitions

    astro-ph.CO 2024-10 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Phase transitions in dark sectors can generate CMB B-modes with amplitudes competitive with inflation but peaking at smaller angular scales.
