摘要
The recent NANOGrav evidence of a common-source stochastic background provides a hint to gravitational waves (GW) radiation from the Early Universe. We show that this result can be interpreted as a GW spectrum produced from first order phase transitions (FOPTs) around a temperature in the keV-MeV window. Such a class of FOPTs at temperatures much below the electroweak scale can be naturally envisaged in several warm dark matter models such as Majoron dark matter.
