A New Mechanism for Bubble Nucleation: Classical Transitions
read the original abstract
Given a scalar field with metastable minima, bubbles nucleate quantum mechanically. When bubbles collide, energy stored in the bubble walls is converted into kinetic energy of the field. This kinetic energy can facilitate the classical nucleation of new bubbles in minima that lie below those of the "parent" bubbles. This process is efficient and classical, and changes the dynamics and statistics of bubble formation in models with multiple vacua, relative to that derived from quantum tunneling.

Kink collisions in a two-dimensional gravity model
In a 2D dilaton-gravity model, stronger gravity shifts kink-antikink bounce windows to higher speeds and narrows them, leaves a lasting contraction of the conformal scale, and produces no curvature singularity in the ...

A mechanism is proposed where the CP violating phase relaxes in discrete steps via nucleation of membranes that discharge the magnetic dual of a 4-form flux, with bubbles colliding and percolating near the chiral symm...
