Abstract

In the present talk, we consider the existence of the two degenerate universal vacua: a) the first Electroweak vacuum at v = 246 GeV - “true vacuum”, and b) the second Planck scale “false vacuum” at v2 ∼ 1018 GeV. In these vacua, we investigated the different topological defects. The main aim of this paper is an investigation of the hedgehog’s configurations as defects of the false vacuum. In the framework of the f(R) gravity, suggested by authors in their Gravi-Weak Unification model, we obtained a black hole solution, which corresponds to a “hedgehog” - global monopole, “swallowed” by a black-hole with mass ∼ 1019 GeV. These black-holes form a lattice-like structure of the vacuum at the Planck scale. Considering the results of the hedgehog lattice theory in the framework of the SU(2) Yang-Mills gauge-invariant theory with hedgehogs in the Wilson loops, we have used the critical value of temperature for the hedgehog’s confinement phase. This result gave us the possibility to conclude that there exist triplet Higgs fields which can contribute to the SM at the energy scale ≃ 104 ∼ 105 GeV. Showing a new physics at the scale 10÷100 TeV, these triplet Higgs particles can provide the stability of the EW-vacuum of the SM.

Highlights

  • During the expansion after the Planck era, the early Universe underwent a series of phase transitions as a result of which there were arisen such vacuum topological defects (widely discussed in literature) as monopoles or hedgehogs (point defects), strings (line defects), bubbles and domain walls (sheet defects)

  • During the expansion after the Planck era, the early Universe underwent a series of phase transitions as a result of which there were arisen such vacuum topological defects as monopoles or hedgehogs, strings, bubbles and domain walls

  • We have shown that at superhigh (Planck scale) energies the black-holes-hedgehogs are responsible for the creation of the false vacuum of the Universe

Summary

Introduction

During the expansion after the Planck era, the early Universe underwent a series of phase transitions as a result of which there were arisen such vacuum topological defects (widely discussed in literature) as monopoles or hedgehogs (point defects), strings (line defects), bubbles and domain walls (sheet defects). We consider the existence of the two degenerate universal vacua: a) the first Electroweak vacuum at v = 246 GeV - “true vacuum”, and b) the second Planck scale “false vacuum” at v2 ∼ 1018 GeV.
