Electroweak phase transition and Higgs phenomenology in the Georgi-Machacek model
2019
In this work, we perform the electroweak phase transition study with the Georgi-Machacek model. We investigate both the one-step and two-step strong first order electroweak phase transition (SFOEWPT). The SFOEWPT viable parameter spaces could be tested by the future 14 TeV LHC, HL-LHC, and ILC. The LHC Higgs signal strength measurements severely bound the SFOEWPT valid parameter spaces, a tinny region of the mixing angle between the neutral fields of the isospin-doublet and isospin-triplet scalars around $\alpha\sim 0$ can allow the two-step SFOEWPT to occur. The triplet vacuum expectation value (VEV) is crucial for both SFOEWPT and related Higgs phenomenology. The two-step SFOEWPT can be distinguished from the one-step SFOEWPT through the triple Higgs coupling searches and the low mass doubly charged Higgs searches at colliders.
