Where the electroweak phase transition ends
read the original abstract
We give a more precise characterisation of the end of the electroweak phase transition in the framework of the effective 3d SU(2)--Higgs lattice model than has been given before. The model has now been simulated at gauge couplings beta_G=12 and 16 for Higgs masses M_H^*=70, 74, 76 and 80 GeV up to lattices 96^3 and the data have been used for reweighting. The breakdown of finite volume scaling of the Lee-Yang zeroes indicates the change from a first order transition to a crossover at lambda_3/g_3^2=0.102(2) in rough agreement with results of Karsch et al (hep-lat/9608087) at \beta_G=9 and smaller lattices. The infinite volume extrapolation of the discontinuity Delta < phi^+ phi > /g_3^2 turns out to be zero at lambda_3/g_3^2=0.107(2) being an upper limit. We comment on the limitations of the second method.

Electroweak Baryogenesis from Collapsing Domain Walls
Collapsing axion-like domain walls generate the baryon asymmetry by acting as an effective chemical potential through coupling to the electroweak topological term, with the asymmetry produced via sphaleron processes.
