Abstract
The phase transition associated with the standard electroweak model is very weakly first order. The weakness of the transition means that around the critical temperature the finite-temperature Higgs mass is much less than the critical temperature. This leads to infrared problems in the calculation of the parameters of the potential. Therefore, theories of electroweak baryogenesis, which depend on the details of the transition, must be calculated with care.
