1. 1. Exploring electroweak symmetry breaking in the scale-invariant Two-Higgs-Doublet Model

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

   Author : Erik Rustas; [2023]
   Keywords : Two-Higgs-Doublet Models; 2HDM; Scale-invariance; Baryogenesis; BSM; Baryon Asymmetry; Coleman-Weinberg Potential; Theoretical Particle Physics; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates the properties of a general scale-invariant Two-Higgs-Doublet Model and its phenomenological consequences with focus on the scalar sector. The concept suggests that introducing more CP-violation, both spontaneous and explicit, may make it possible to meet the Sakharov conditions and account for the Universe's baryon asymmetry.

3. 2. Electroweak Phase Transition in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

   Author : Alan Aliyali; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : At least two Cosmological phase transitions are very probable to have happened since the beginning of the universe, one of them being the electroweak phase transition responsible for the breaking of the EW symmetry. It is possible that the EW phase transition could have caused the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe and therefore provide an explanation for the baryon asymmetry problem. READ MORE

4. 3. Exploring a Two Higgs Doublet Model with a U(1) Family Symmetry and a Complex Singlet

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Michal Nowak; [2021]
   Keywords : Two Higgs Doublet Model; Complex Singlet Extension; Phenomenology; Physics Beyond the Standard Model; Branco-Grimus-Lavoura Model; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this project a two Higgs doublet model with a complex singlet and an extra family symmetry providing a mechanism for suppression of flavor changing neutral currents is explored. The goal is to investigate the phenomenological consistency of the model using a custom software framework. READ MORE

5. 4. Searching for signatures of compositeness of the Higgs boson

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

   Author : Mårten Bertenstam; [2021]
   Keywords : two-Higgs-doublet model; composite Higgs model; composite two-Higgs-doublet model; phase transition; cosmological phase transition; electroweak phase transition; gravitational waves; gravitational wave background; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this master thesis we consider some phenomenological aspects of two-Higgs-doublet models, both elementary and composite ones. The emphasis is on calculating and understanding first order phase transitions in such models, constrained to be in agreement with existing collider data on the Higgs sector. READ MORE

6. 5. Exploring the Gauge Sector of a Composite Two-Higgs Doublet Model

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

   Author : Adam Warnerbring; [2021]
   Keywords : two-Higgs doublet model; composite Higgs model; composite two-Higgs doublet model; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this bachelor thesis we investigate the gauge sector of a specific composite two-Higgs doublet model, allowing more freedom for the gauge couplings and compositeness scales. From the underlying parameters we generate model realisations with the correct top mass, Higgs mass and electroweak vacuum expectation value, that satisfy theoretical constraints such as unitarity and perturbativity.
