Description
We give an exhaustive review about the question of (meta-)stability of the vacuum in the Standard Model in the light of the Higgs discovery and its possible implications for physics beyond the Standard Model.
B. Kniehl: Vacuum stability in the Standard Model at two loops
S.-O. Moch: How the top-quark mass affects electro-weak vacuum stability
A. Westphal: Inflationary ramifications of a meta-stable Higgs vacuum
