Dark Matter and Baryogenesis from Gravitational Waves

POSTER

Abstract

Gravitational wave detectors will be expressed to probe models of assymetric dark matter. Such theories can simultaneously explain dark matter and the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe. I will present the results of our calculation for a model extending the Standard Model symmetry by a non-Abelian gauge group. Under this new symmetry, the leptons form doublets with new fermionic partners, one of which is a dark matter candidate. The model exhibits a strong first order phase transition at a high scale, which leads to the production of gravitational waves through sound waves and bubble collisions. The resulting signatures are within the reach of near-future gravitational wave experiments, like the Einstein Telescope, Cosmic Explorer, DECIGO, and Big Bang Observer.
