High Energy Physics - Theory 2013-07-16 v1

Abstract

In this paper we study the dynamics of φ4\varphi^{4} kinks, generated by considering a particular argument of φ4\varphi^{4} field, in the presence of class of smooth space dependent potentials ie. barriers and wells. Various type of these potentials are produced via two-parameter family. These parameters control the shapes, widths and heights of such potentials. The dynamics are presented through the plotting of the trajectories. We compare numerical calculated critical velocities to theoretical calculations.
