Description
We study generic effects of Beyond the Standard
Model physics on the Standard Model Higgs sector. Specifically we
investigate the effects of higher order operators in the Higgs potential
in the Higgs-Yukawa and gauge-Higgs sectors separately. Our main result
is the dependence of the critical endpoint of the Electroweak
finite temperature phase transition on the scale of new physics.
