We consider the creation of kink-antikink pairs of a scalar field $\phi$ by the scattering of classical wavepackets of a second scalar field, $\psi$, when there are no direct interactions between $\phi$ and $\psi$. The creation becomes…
We present a numerical study of the process of production of kink-antikink pairs in the collision of particle-like states in the one-dimensional $\phi^4$ model. It is shown that there are 3 steps in the process, the first step is to excite…
We study classical production of soliton-antisoliton pairs from colliding wave packets in (1+1)-dimensional scalar field model. Wave packets represent multiparticle states in quantum theory; we characterize them by energy E and particle…
We have shown that the wave scattering by a soliton occurs in a peculiar way. The nonlinear interaction leads to the generation of waves with frequencies that are multiples of the frequency of the incident wave, minus the frequency of the…
Soliton molecules may be formed in some possible mechanisms in both theoretical and experimental aspects. In this letter, we introduce a new possible mechanism, the velocity resonant, to form soliton molecules. Under the resonant mechanism,…
We study the scattering processes of kink-antikink and kink-kink pairs in a field theory model with non-differentiable potential at its minima. The kink-antikink scattering includes cases of capture and escape of the soliton pair separated…
We investigate the propagation of a wave--packet in the $\phi^4$ model. We solve the time-dependent equation of motion for two distinct initial conditions: The wave-packet in a trivial vacuum background and in the background of the kink…
We propose a method of forming matter-wave soliton molecules that is inspired by the recent experiment of Dris {\it et al.}. In the proposed set-up we show that if two solitons are initially prepared in phase and with a sufficiently small…
Interaction of asymmetric $\phi^6$ kinks with a spatially localized $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric perturbation is investigated numerically. It has been shown that when the kink (antikink) hits the defect from the gain side, a final velocity of…
We present a dynamical picture of kink-anti-kink scattering in a pair of special, Frankensteinian potentials made of piece-wise quadratic and linear pieces. Specifically, we focus on models that support kinks without skin and core regions.…
Kink-antikink scattering in the $\phi^4$ model is investigated in the limit when the static inter-soliton force vanishes. We observe the formation of spectral walls and, further, identify a new phenomenon, the vacuum wall, whose existence…
In this work we consider a model where the potential has two topological sectors connecting three adjacent minima, as occurs with the $\phi^6$ model. In each topological sector, the potential is symmetric around the local maximum. For…
We study scattering of quasi one-dimensional matter-waves at an interface of two spatial domains, one with repulsive and one with attractive interatomic interactions. It is shown that the incidence of a Gaussian wavepacket from the…
We analyze the interaction of lattice vibrations (phonon wave-packets) with an asymmetric kink soliton initially at rest. We employ the $\phi^6$ model in one space and one time dimensions for various lattice spacings and consider two…
The interaction between kink and radiation in nonlinear one-dimensional real scalar field is investigated. The process of discrete vibrational mode excitation in $\phi^4$ model is considered. The role of this oscillations in creation of…
We explore the classical production of solitons in the easy axis O(3) model in 1+1 dimensions, for a wide range of initial conditions that correspond to the scattering of small breathers. We characterize the fractal nature of the region in…
The maximal energy density that can be achieved in the collisions of the particle-like wave trains in the $\phi^4$ model has been investigated numerically for different wave train parameters. From these results the prediction is made on how…
In both the Gardner equation and its extensions, the non-convex convection bounds the range of solitons / compactons velocities beyond which they dissolve and kink/anti-kink form. Close to solitons barrier we unfold a narrow strip of…
The process of electron-positron pair creation by a high-energy electron in a medium is analyzed. The spectral distribution over energies of created particles is calculated for the direct and cascade mechanisms of the process. The Coulomb…
We study how the successive scattering of spin 1/2 particles with a central spin 1/2 target particle can generate entanglement between the helicity degrees of freedom of all scattered particles, effectively producing a multipartite…
