Detailed Phase Transition Study at M_H <= 70 GeV in a 3-dimensional $SU(2)$--Higgs Model

Abstract

We study the electroweak phase transition in an effective 3-dimensional theory for a Higgs mass of about 70 GeV by Monte Carlo simulations. The transition temperature and jumps of order parameters are obtained and extrapolated to the continuum using multi-histogram techniques and finite size analysis.
