We give a manifestly gauge-invariant expression of the decay rate. We also perform a detailed numerical calculation of the decay rate. With the best-fit values of the SM parameters, we find that the decay rate of the EW vacuum per unit volume is about $10^{-577}\\ {\\rm Gyr^{-1}Gpc^{-3}}$; with the uncertainty in the top mass, the decay rate is estimated as $10^{-295}-10^{-1465}\\ {\\rm Gyr^{-1}Gpc^{-3}}$.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1707.09301v4","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/1707.09301v4.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"state-of-the-art-calculation-of-the-decay","repo_url":"https://github.com/YShoji-HEP/ELVAS","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
