Gravitational waves from minisplit SUSY

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: We show that color-breaking vacua may develop at high temperature in the minisplit supersymmetry (SUSY) scenario. This can lead to a nontrivial cosmological history of the Universe, including strong first order phase transitions and domain wall production. Given the typical PeV energy scale associated with minisplit SUSY models, a stochastic gravitational wave background at frequencies around 1 kHz is expected. We study the potential for detection of such a signal in future gravitational wave experiments.
