Non-equilibrium processes in strong first-order phase transitions potentially leave observable footprints e.g. in the spe ctrum of gravitational waves (GW). Conformal field theory (CFT) has been r ecognized as a plausible candidate for inducing strong first-order phase t ransitions\, but discussions have been based on a 5D setup without a concr ete 4D model of CFT. In this talk\, we introduce a 4D supersymmetric QCD i n conformal window with a marginally relevant deformation that triggers th e spontaneous breaking of (approximate) scale invariance. By analyzing the finite temperature system\, we show that the phase transition associated with the breaking of conformal invariance is of the strong first-order. We also estimate the amount of GWs from the phase transition to discuss the possibility of detection in future observations.\n\nBiography: Shota Nakag awa is a postdoctoral fellow at Tsung-Dao Lee Institute since 2023. He obt ained his PhD degree in 2023 from Tohoku University. His main research int erests focus on particle physics and cosmology\, in particular\, axion phy sics.\n\n*请线下参加报告的外单位老师、同学注册时填写 个人信息（中文姓名、身份证号码及手机号码），用于 预约进入物理学院。\nhttps://indico.ihep.ac.cn/event/25590/ LOCATION:B105 (CHEP) URL:https://indico.ihep.ac.cn/event/25590/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
