论文摘要
驱动亚稳态真空衰减的隧道反弹必须尊重由简单缩放参数决定的积分约束,该参数对于确定反弹的关键特性非常有用。在说明了在简单的玩具模型中的工作方式之后,考虑了标准模型HIGGS电位,包括四分之一的耦合运行和重力校正,作为规模不变性破坏的来源。这种方法阐明了弹跳的存在,并导致突破参数的扩展,从而导致简单准确的分析结果。使用所谓的隧道潜在方法(用于重力的非微小耦合)的积分约束和隧道作用在扰动中扩展到二阶。
A tunneling bounce driving the decay of a metastable vacuum must respect an integral constraint dictated by simple scaling arguments that is very useful to determine key properties of the bounce. After illustrating how this works in a simple toy model, the Standard Model Higgs potential is considered, including quartic coupling running and gravitational corrections as sources of scale invariance breaking. This approach clarifies the existence of the bounce and leads to simple and accurate analytical results in an expansion in the breaking parameters. Using the so-called tunneling-potential approach (generalized for nonminimal coupling to gravity) the integral constraint and the tunneling action are extended to second order in perturbations.
