Development of the electroweak phase transition and baryogenesis
We investigate the evolution of the electroweak phase transition, using a
one-Higgs effective potential that can be regarded as an approximation for the
Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. The phase transition occurs in a small
interval around a temperature T_t below the critical one. We calculate this
temperature as a function of the parameters of the potential and of a damping
coefficient related to the viscosity of the plasma. The parameters that are
relevant for baryogenesis, such as the velocity and thickness of the walls of
bubbles and the value of the Higgs field inside them, change significantly in
the range of temperatures where the first-order phase transition can occur.
However, we find that in the likely interval for T_t there is no significant
variation of these parameters. Furthermore, the temperature T_t is in general
not far below the temperature at which bubbles begin to nucleate.Comment: 26 pages, 7 figures; typos corrected, reference adde
High Temperature Matter and Gamma Ray Spectra from Microscopic Black Holes
The relativistic viscous fluid equations describing the outflow of high
temperature matter created via Hawking radiation from microscopic black holes
are solved numerically for a realistic equation of state. We focus on black
holes with initial temperatures greater than 100 GeV and lifetimes less than 6
days. The spectra of direct photons and photons from decay are
calculated for energies greater than 1 GeV. We calculate the diffuse gamma ray
spectrum from black holes distributed in our galactic halo. However, the most
promising route for their observation is to search for point sources emitting
gamma rays of ever-increasing energy.Comment: 33 pages, 13 figures, to be submitted to PR
The Three Loop Equation of State of QED at High Temperature
We present the three loop contribution (order ) to the pressure of
massless quantum electrodynamics at nonzero temperature. The calculation is
performed within the imaginary time formalism. Dimensional regularization is
used to handle the usual, intermediate stage, ultraviolet and infrared
singularities, and also to prevent overcounting of diagrams during resummation.Comment: ANL-HEP-PR-94-02, SPhT/94-054 (revised final version
Black Hole Chromosphere at the LHC
If the scale of quantum gravity is near a TeV, black holes will be copiously
produced at the LHC. In this work we study the main properties of the light
descendants of these black holes. We show that the emitted partons are closely
spaced outside the horizon, and hence they do not fragment into hadrons in
vacuum but more likely into a kind of quark-gluon plasma. Consequently, the
thermal emission occurs far from the horizon, at a temperature characteristic
of the QCD scale. We analyze the energy spectrum of the particles emerging from
the "chromosphere", and find that the hard hadronic jets are almost entirely
suppressed. They are replaced by an isotropic distribution of soft photons and
hadrons, with hundreds of particles in the GeV range. This provides a new
distinctive signature for black hole events at LHC.Comment: Incorporates changes made for the version to be published in Phys.

Numerical Solutions of ideal two-fluid equations very closed to the event horizon of Schwarzschild black hole
The 3+1 formalism of Thorne, Price and Macdonald has been used to derive the
linear two-fluid equations describing transverse and longitudinal waves
propagating in the two-fluid ideal collisionless plasmas surrounding a
Schwarzschild black hole. The plasma is assumed to be falling in radial
direction toward the event horizon. The relativistic two-fluid equations have
been reformulate, in analogy with the special relativistic formulation as
explained in an earlier paper, to take account of relativistic effects due to
the event horizon. Here a WKB approximation is used to derive the local
dispersion relation for these waves and solved numerically for the wave number
k.Comment: 16 pages, 15 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Calculation of the emergent spectrum and observation of primordial black holes
We calculate the emergent spectrum of microscopic black holes, which emit
copious amounts of thermal ``Hawking'' radiation, taking into account the
proposition that (contrary to previous models) emitted quarks and gluons do not
directly fragment into hadrons, but rather interact and form a photosphere and
decrease in energy before fragmenting. The resulting spectrum emits copious
amount of photons at energies around 100MeV. We find that the limit on the
average universal density of black holes is not significantly affected by the
photosphere. However we also find that gamma ray satellites such as EGRET and
GLAST are well suited to look for nearby black holes out to a distance on the
order of 0.3 parsecs, and conclude that if black holes are clustered locally as
much as luminous matter, they may be directly detectable.Comment: 10 pages, Latex, submitted to PR
Constraints on diffuse neutrino background from primordial black holes
We calculated the energy spectra and the fluxes of electron neutrino emitted
in the process of evaporation of primordial black holes (PBHs) in the early
universe. It was assumed that PBHs are formed by a blue power-law spectrum of
primordial density fluctuations. We obtained the bounds on the spectral index
of density fluctuations assuming validity of the standard picture of
gravitational collapse and using the available data of several experiments with
atmospheric and solar neutrinos. The comparison of our results with the
previous constraints (which had been obtained using diffuse photon background
data) shows that such bounds are quite sensitive to an assumed form of the
initial PBH mass function.Comment: 18 pages,(with 7 figures
Scales of the Extra Dimensions and their Gravitational Wave Backgrounds
Circumstances are described in which symmetry breaking during the formation
of our three-dimensional brane within a higher-dimensional space in the early
universe excites mesoscopic classical radion or brane-displacement degrees of
freedom and produces a detectable stochastic background of gravitational
radiation. The spectrum of the background is related to the unification energy
scale and the the sizes and numbers of large extra dimensions. It is shown that
properties of the background observable by gravitational-wave observatories at
frequencies Hz to Hz contain information about
unification on energy scales from 1 to TeV, gravity propagating
through extra-dimension sizes from 1 mm to mm, and the dynamical
history and stabilization of from one to seven extra dimensions.Comment: 6 pages, Latex, 1 figure, submitted to Phys. Re
