10 BEHAVIOR OF BUBBLES Two main players : scalar field & plasma [e.g. Espinosa et al., JCAP06(2010)028] pressure scalar+plasma dynamics true friction false wall - Walls (where the scalar field value changes) want to expand ( pressure ) - Walls are pushed back by plasma ( friction ) Walls make thermal plasma motion : Case 1 v w & 1/ p 3 (Detonation) plasma bulk motion true v w false v w Ryusuke Jinno 05 / 22

12 DYNAMICS AFTER COLLISION Bubbles start to nucleate - Nucleation rate (per unit time & vol) Γ(t) e βt Ryusuke Jinno 06 / 22
13 DYNAMICS AFTER COLLISION Bubbles expand - Bubbles expand, keeping (thickness of bulk motion) (bubble radius) = const. typically ~ Bulk motion carries most of the released energy - Typically collide after nucleation t 1/ Ryusuke Jinno 06 / 22
14 DYNAMICS AFTER COLLISION Bubbles collide - Scalar field damps soon after collision c s v w - Plasma bulk motion continues to propagate sound 2 t c 2 sr 2 u i =0 u i : fluid velocity field Note velocity changes from v w to c s - Thickness of the bulk motion is fixed at the time of collision Ryusuke Jinno 06 / 22

20 THE SYSTEM WE WANT TO UNDERSTAND Let us solve the following system Ryusuke Jinno 09 / 22
21 THE SYSTEM WE WANT TO UNDERSTAND Let us solve the following system - Cosmic expansion neglected - Bubbles nucleate with rate Γ (Typically Γ ~ e βt in thermal transitions) - Bubble shells (parametrizing both scalar & plasma bulk motion) are approximated to be thin Ryusuke Jinno 09 / 22
22 THE SYSTEM WE WANT TO UNDERSTAND Let us solve the following system - Shells become more and more energetic T ij (bubble radius) - They lose energy & momentum after first collision T ij 2 (bubble collision) T collision (bubble radius) 2 (arbitrary damping func. D) Ryusuke Jinno 09 / 22
23 THIS SYSTEM IS SOLVABLE We wrote down GW spectrum in this system analytically, essentially from causality : (1 year and half) Full derivation takes too long we illustrate the derivation in a simplified setup : Envelope approximation Ryusuke Jinno 10 / 22
24 n DEFINITION OF GW SPECTRUM Let s focus on transition time, since redshift after production is trivial Transition time Redshift t t = t start t = t end t = t 0 What we want to know : GW (t end,k) = GW energy density per each wavenumber k GW (t end,k) h ij (t end,k)h ij(t end,k) Z tend t start dt x Z tend t start dt y cos(k(t x t y )) F.T.

47 FUTURE PROSPECTS Can we make GWs CMB? Many things to do: c s v w - Make more realistic prediction by accommodating propagation velocity change - Cross-check with thin-wall numerical simulations establish low-freq. regime - Subtracting above from full numerical simulation will tell us really β/h enhancing part of sound waves - Other questions e.g. how long sound waves last? We can divide problems into smaller pieces... [Hindmarsh et al. 17] Ryusuke Jinno 21 / 22
48 CONCLUSION We developed an analytic approach to GW production in phase transitions, which will describe the low-frequency regime of GW spectrum Will help to interpret numerical simulation results and to gain insight on the physics encoded in the spectrum Still many things to do: Let s prepare for LISA Ryusuke Jinno 22 / 22

O(0.1) plasma bulk motion pressure friction cs wall - Plasma friction cannot balance with pressure - Walls approach the speed of light - Energy accumulates in walls Terminal velocity (to experts : this is detonation case) - Plasma friction gets balanced with pressure - Walls approach terminal velocity - Energy accumulates in plasma bulk motion Ryusuke Jinno / 22

59 n DEFINITION OF GW SPECTRUM Let s focus on transition time, since redshift after production is trivial Transition time Redshift t t = t start t = t end t = t 0 What we want to know : GW (t end,k) = GW energy density per each wavenumber k GW (t end,k) h ij (t end,k)h ij(t end,k) Z tend t start dt x Z tend t start dt y cos(k(t x t y )) F.T.

62 ILLUSTRATION: SINGLE-BUBBLE SPECTRUM Necessary and sufficient conditions - No bubbles nucleate inside past cones (probability denoted by P (x, y) ) - One bubble nucleates inside the red diamond t = t n slice within infinitesimal time interval t n t n + dt n Resulting expression ht (x)t (y)i (s) ense Z = P (x, y) dt n prob. for one bubble to nucleate in the red diamond value of T (x)t (y) realized in each case Ryusuke Jinno / 22
63 NUMERICAL RESULT FOR ENVELOPE CASE Consistent with numerical simulation within factor ~2 v = 1 v = 0.1 v = 0.01 [Jinno & Takimoto 16] Ryusuke Jinno / 22
64 WHY SINGLE-BUBBLE MATTERS Illustration with envelope - Two bubble-wall fragments must remain uncollided until they reach x and y - Other parts of the bubble might have collided already [Jinno & Takimoto, PRD95 (2017)] - In this sense, breaking of spherical sym. is automatically taken into account Ryusuke Jinno / 22
