Descripción

The study of the stability condition of the Electroweak vacuum is an essential tool for the comprehension of the non-perturbative interplay between the Standard Model and its UV completions at high energy (Planck) scales. The role played by the IR parameters, such as Higgs and top masses, on the stability analysis has been widely investigated. In our contribution we show that the presence of new physics at very high energy scales could also affect the stability condition. We analyze how different (toy) implementations of some UV completions of the Standard Model are responsible for the appearance of new kind of "faster" (most likely) field configurations dominating the transition amplitude for the decay of the electroweak (metastable) vacuum. Therefore, for different values of the Higgs and top masses, we compute the tunneling rate and and evaluate the stability diagram for these different new physics scenarios thus showing the "non-universality" of the stability condition.
