Parameterizing the SFC Baryogenesis Model by Daniela Kirilova, Mariana Panayotova

“…We have investigated the evolution of the baryon charge carrying field, the evolution of the baryon charge contained in the scalar field condensate, and the final value of the generated baryon charge on the model’s parameters: the gauge coupling constant α, the Hubble constant at the inflationary stage HI, the mass m, and the self-coupling constants λi.…”
