Probing Flavor Violation and Baryogenesis Via Primordial Gravitational Waves
摘要
We investigate primordial gravitational waves (GWs) to test flavor violation and baryogenesis, where a long-lived flavon field decays, generating baryon asymmetry and causing an intermediate matter domination epoch that suppresses GWs [1]. Detectable by DECIGO, BBO, LISA, and ET, this suppression informs parameter constraints on the flavon mass and decay width.
