High-temperature electroweak symmetry non-restoration from new fermions and implications for baryogenesis
Abstract The strength of electroweak symmetry breaking may substantially differ in the early Universe compared to the present day value. In the Standard Model, the Higgs vacuum expectation value (vev ) vanishes and electroweak symmetry gets restored at temperatures above ∼ 160 GeV due to the Higgs f...
