Testing the dark SU(N) Yang-Mills theory Confined Landscape: From the Lattice to Gravitational Waves

21 Dec 2020  ·  Wei-Chih Huang, Manuel Reichert, Francesco Sannino, Zhi-Wei Wang ·

We pave the way for future gravitational-wave detection experiments, such as the Big Bang Observer and DECIGO, to constrain dark sectors made of SU(N) Yang-Mills confined theories. We go beyond the state-of-the-art by combining first principle lattice results and effective field theory approaches to infer essential information about the non-perturbative dark deconfinement phase transition driving the generation of gravitational-waves in the early universe, such as the order, duration and energy budget of the phase transition which are essential in establishing the strength of the resulting gravitational-wave signal.
