  We study the interactions of quarks and antiquarks with the changing Higgs
field during the electroweak phase transition, including quantum mechanical and
some thermal effects, with the only source of CP violation being the known CKM
phase. The magnitude and sign of the predicted BAU agrees with the observed
value, with moderately optimistic assumptions about the dynamics of the phase
transition. At present uncertainties related to the dynamics of the ew phase
transition and the oversimplifications of our treatment are too great to decide
whether or not this is the correct explanation for the presence of remnant
matter in our universe, however the present work makes it clear that the
minimal standard model cannot be discounted as a contender for explaining this
phenomenon.
