Theories of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking predict a strong first order cosmological phase transition: we compute the resulting signals, primordial black holes and gravitational waves. These theories employ one SM-neutral scalar, plus some extra model-dependent particle to get the desired quantum potential out of classical scale invariance. We consider models where the extra particle is a scalar singlet, or vectors of an extended U(1) or SU(2) gauge sector. In models where the extra particle is stable, it provides a particle Dark Matter candidate with freeze-out abundance that tends to dominate over primordial black holes. These can instead be DM in models without a particle DM candidate. Gravitational waves arise at a level observable in future searches, even in regions where DM cannot be directly tested.

  1. Particle production from bubble collisions

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Heavy particles are produced in bubble-wall collisions by on-shell partonic scatterings, not by off-shell decay of the classical field, so the earlier rates and their phenomenological signals are parametrically overestimated.

  2. Can the universe be matter-dominated after a supercooled first-order phase transition?

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    After a supercooled first-order phase transition, the scalar field's equation of state is set by the bubble-wall Lorentz factor γ*, and matter domination is delayed until a/a* ≃ γ* in the free-streaming limit.

  3. Fine-tuning in mixed Dark Matter models with Primordial Black Hole relics

    astro-ph.CO 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In mixed dark matter models combining Planck-mass black hole relics, Hawking-evaporated particles, and a WIMP, freeze-in, or axion component, the total abundance's fine-tuning is dominated by the primordial power spec...

  4. Complementary Probes of Warped Extra Dimension: Colliders, Gravitational Waves and Primordial Black Holes from Phase Transitions

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In Randall-Sundrum warped extra dimension models, the supercooled radion phase transition can form primordial black holes that account for all of dark matter for IR scales 10 TeV to 10^4 TeV, with correlated gravitati...

  5. Primordial Black Holes (as Dark Matter) from the Supercooled Phase Transitions with Radiative Symmetry Breaking

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Supercooled radiative symmetry breaking phase transitions generically produce primordial black holes, and the false-vacuum decay rate grows exponentially with time to high accuracy.

  6. PBH formation and Gravitational Waves as Multi-messenger Signals of First-order Phase Transitions

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    False-vacuum collapse during first-order phase transitions can form PBHs and emit GWs across a broad parameter range, and MeV-scale classically conformal U(1)_{B-L} symmetry breaking has the largest region where both ...

  7. Super-critical primordial black hole formation via delayed first-order electroweak phase transition

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Delayed first-order electroweak phase transitions can form super-critical primordial black holes, and a timescale ratio t_H/t_V captures the threshold better than the standard density contrast.

  8. Supercooled Phase Transitions with Radiative Symmetry Breaking

    hep-ph 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Supercooled phase transitions from radiative symmetry breaking can be described, at leading and next-to-leading order, by formulas depending only on three or four parameters (χ0, β̄, g, and g̃ at NLO).
