Scattering of the φ8 kinks with power-law asymptotics

Abstract: We study the scattering of the ϕ 8 kinks off each other, namely, we consider those ϕ 8 kinks that have power-law asymptotics. The slow power-law fall-off leads to a long-range interaction between the kink and the antikink. We investigate how the scattering scenarios depend on the initial velocities of the colliding kinks. In particular, we observe the 'escape windows' -the escape of the kinks after two or more collisions, explained by the resonant energy exchange between the translational and vibrational modes… Show more

“…We can also ask about the collision of kinks and anti-kinks with polynomial tails, an issue that can be implemented as in [39]. Since the topological structures here investigated simulate long range interactions, further investigations are welcome, mainly in the directions concerning issues related to their collective behavior [30], and to applications to the physics of quantum gases [31] and quantum information [32].…”

“…A broad class of (1, 1)-dimensional models with polynomial potentials such as the ϕ 4 , ϕ 6 , ϕ 8 models, and those with higher degree polynomial self-interaction has been considered [62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76]. One should also mention the new results on the long-range interaction between kinks [74][75][76][77][78][79]. Other models with non-polynomial potentials are also being discussed in the literature.…”
