Cosmological Phase Transitions—EWPT-QCDPT: Magnetic Field Creation

Abstract

We review the cosmic microwave background (CMBR) estimate of ordinary matter, dark matter and dark energy in the universe. Then, we review the cosmological electroweak (EWPT) and quantum chromodynamics (QCDPT) phase transitions. During both the EWPT and QCDPT, bubbles form and collide, producing magnetic fields. We review dark matter produced during the EWPT and the estimate of dark matter via galaxy rotation.
