## Abstract

Physical parameters of the electroweak phase transition in a 3d effective lattice SU(2)-Higgs model are presented. The phase transition temperatures, latent heats and continuum condensate discontinuities are measured at Higgs masses of about 70 and 35 GeV. Masses and Higgs condensates are compared to perturbation theory in the broken phase. In the symmetric phase bound states and the static force are determined.
