The Standard Model of particle physics famously predicts a second-order electroweak phase transition, but extended scalar sectors allow for much more interesting possibilities. In this work, we developed a flexible code that calculates the gravitational wave spectrum and the signal-to-noise ratio in future experiments for a wide range of models. We went a step forward and implemented the calculation of the baryon asymmetry of the Universe for models with extra CP-violation.
