我们考虑了最小KSVA轴子模型的一种简单、模型无关的扩展,在佩奇-奎因有效势中加入了一个佩奇-奎因对称下不变的六维算符。我们表明该算符可触发一阶相变并研究其宇宙学后果,绘制了符合当前观测约束的参数空间,其中相变产生的引力波信号可被当前及未来的干涉仪观测到,还探究了由此产生的暗物质现象学。最后,我们提出了产生该六维算符的具体紫外完备模型,每个模型都会产生不同的现象学信号,这为我们的模型无关方法提供了动机。
英文摘要
We consider a simple model-independent extension of the minimal KSVZ axion model, augmenting the Peccei - Quinn effective potential with a dimension-6 operator invariant under the Peccei - Quinn symmetry. We show that this operator can trigger a first-order phase transition and study its cosmological consequences. We map out the parameter space, consistent with present observational constraints, in which the phase transition produces a gravitational wave signal observable at current and future interferometers, and we investigate the resulting dark matter phenomenology. Finally, we present specific ultraviolet completions that generate the dimension-6 operator, each leading to distinct phenomenological signatures, which motivates our model-independent approach.
