| Abstract: |
I present an EFT framework for strong, indeed the strongest, cosmological phase transitions—this is precisely where standard high-temperature dimensional reduction fails. After reviewing high-temperature dimensional reduction for weak and intermediate transitions and pinpointing where its standard assumptions fail, we construct EFTs that remain valid for very strong transitions. The approach applies to Higgs-like and multi-field models, including those with tree-level barriers.
