abstract
Beyond the Standard Model physics is required to explain both dark matter and the baryon asymmetry of the universe, the latter possibly generated during a strong first-order electroweak phase transition. While many proposed models tackle these problems independently, it is interesting to inquire whether the same model can explain both. In this context, we link state-of-the-art perturbative assessments of the phase transition thermodynamics with the extraction of the dark matter energy density. These techniques are applied to a next-to-minimal dark matter model containing an inert Majorana fermion that is coupled to Standard Model leptons via a scalar mediator, where the mediator interacts directly with the Higgs boson. For dark matter masses 180 GeV $ < M_\chi <$ 300 GeV, we discern regions of the model parameter space that reproduce the observed dark matter energy density and allow for a first-order phase transition, while evading the most stringent collider constraints.

Hot news on the phase structure of the SMEFT
A full O(g^4) dimensional reduction of the dimension-six SMEFT shows that the top-Higgs operator O_tphi can trigger a first-order electroweak phase transition with zero (phi-dagger phi)^3 coupling at zero temperature.

Hard thermal contributions to phase transition observables at NNLO
Three-loop thermal masses and two-loop quartic couplings complete the O(g^6) high-temperature EFT of U(1) and SU(N) gauge-Higgs models, with a missing contribution identified in a known three-loop master integral.

Connecting $t$-channel Dark Matter Models to the Standard Model Effective Field Theory
One-loop SMEFT Wilson coefficients for leptophilic t-channel dark matter, combined with global fits, exclude large coupling regions, especially C_ell_ell for doublet mediators and C_ed above 3 TeV.
