Bubble nucleation and growth in slow cosmological phase transitions

We study the dynamics of cosmological phase transitions in the case of small velocities of bubble walls, vw<0.1. We discuss the conditions in which this scenario arises in a physical model, and we compute the development of the phase transition. We consider different kinds of approximations and r...
