The Two-Loop Finite-Temperature Effective Potential of the MSSM and   Baryogenesis
  We construct an effective three dimensional theory for the MSSM at high temperatures in the limit of large-$m_{A}$. We analyse the two-loop effective potential of the 3D theory for the case of a light right handed stop to determine the precise region in the $m_{h}$-$m_{\tilde{t}_{R}}$ plane for which the sphaleron constraint for preservation of the baryon asymmetry is satisfied. We also compare with results previously obtained usind 3D and 4D calculations of the effective potential. A two-stage phase transition still persists for a small range of values of $m_{\tilde{t}_{R}}$. The allowed region requires a value of $m_{\tilde{t}_{R}} \lsi m_{t}$ and $m_{h} \lsi 100$ (110) GeV for $m_{Q} = 300$ GeV (1 TeV).
