Résumé |
The recent measurement of the Higgs boson mass implies a relatively slow rise of the Standard Model Higgs
potential at large scales, and a possible second minimum at even larger scales. Consequently, the Higgs field
may develop a large vacuum expectation value during inflation. The relaxation of the Higgs field from its large
postinflationary value to the minimum of the effective potential represents an interesting new stage in the
evolution of the universe. In particular, the matter-antimatter asymmetry could be generated during this
epoch. |
