Finite-time false-vacuum decay in the Ising chain is quantitatively organized by coherent two-kink amplitudes, but no parameter point passes branch-screened finite-size tests, so a thermodynamic nucleation rate is not yet operationally identified.

Operational identifiability of false-vacuum decay rates in the quantum Ising chain
Finite-time false-vacuum decay in the Ising chain is quantitatively organized by coherent two-kink amplitudes, but no parameter point passes branch-screened finite-size tests, so a thermodynamic nucleation rate is not yet operationally identified.
