In this minicourse, I will give an introduction to phase transitions in the early universe and how they may produce stochastic gravitational waves which could be detected at current and future observatories.

After describing the dynamics of cosmological phase transitions and the quantities which control the production of gravitational waves, I will present several concrete particle-physics models and discuss their discovery prospects at gravitational-wave observatories. Saiba mais...
