The scalar potential at finite temperature is often used to track the thermal evolution of the universe and in the study of cosmological phase transitions (PTs). As observables, such as the spectrum of gravitational waves (GWs), can ultimately be derived from this quantity, it must be computed accurately. We first review the calculation of the finite-temperature effective potential,...
