## Contribution

It introduces a lattice simulation approach for the electroweak phase transition at higher Higgs mass and compares results with lower mass scenarios and perturbation theory.

## Key findings

- Transition temperature, latent heat, and surface tension measured
- Masses and Higgs condensates compared to perturbation theory
- Bound state masses and static force determined in symmetric phase

## Abstract

We study the electroweak phase transition by lattice simulations of an effective 3--dimensional theory, for a Higgs mass of about 70 GeV. Exploiting, among others, a variant of the equal weight criterion of phase equilibrium, we obtain transition temperature, latent heat and surface tension, and compare with M_H approx 35 GeV. In the broken phase masses and Higgs condensates are compared to perturbation theory. For the symmetric phase, bound state masses and the static force are determined.
