  • Abstract摘要

    The bubble wall velocity in first-order cosmological phase transitions is crucial for phenomenological studies of, for example, the production of stochastic gravitational waves and electroweak baryogenesis. It is commonly expected that a friction force on the bubble wall can only arise from out-of-equilibrium effects. Here we study the bubble wall motion in local thermal equilibrium. We resolve some apparent contradictions in the calculations and their interpretation and show that the recently proposed effective friction in local equilibrium originates from inhomogeneous temperature distributions. Further, we propose a new matching condition from local entropy conservation. With this, we are able to determine the bubble velocities in local equilibrium numerically.
