First Order Phase

Using multicanonical Monte Carlo simulations, we have calculated the interface free energy between the coexisting ordered and disordered phase at the temperature driven first-order phase transition of the two-dimensional 7-state Potts model. Our result 2f3= 0.0241±0.0010 is about an order of magnitude smaller than other estimates in the recent literature. We discuss the differences in analysis and give a possible explanation for the discrepancy. Finally, we briefly mention similar investigations at the deconfining phase transition of SU(3) lattice gauge theory.

Abstract We study the stochastic background of gravitational waves which accompany the sudden freeze-out of dark matter triggered by a cosmological first order phase transition that endows dark matter with mass. We consider models that produce the measured dark matter relic abundance via (1) bubble filtering, and (2) inflation and reheating, and show that gravitational waves from these mechanisms are detectable at future interferometers.
