We study kink-antikink scattering in a one-parameter variant of the $\phi^4$ theory where the model parameter controls the static intersoliton force. We interpolate between the limit of no static force (BPS limit) and the regime where the…
We study kink-antikink collisions in the one-dimensional non-integrable scalar phi^6 model. Although the single-kink solutions for this model do not possess an internal vibrational mode, our simulations reveal a resonant scattering…
We study collisions of kinks in the one-space and one-time dimensional noncanonical nonintegrable scalar $\phi^{6}$ model. We examine the energy density of the kink, and we find that, as a function of the parameters that control the…
We present a new and complete analysis of the n-bounce resonance and chaotic scattering in solitary wave collisions. In these phenomena, the speed at which a wave exits a collision depends in a complicated fractal way on its input speed. We…
In this work we consider kink-antikink and antikink-kink collisions in a modified $\phi^4$ model with a false vacuum characterized by a dimensionless parameter $\epsilon$. The usual $\phi^4$ model is recovered for $\epsilon=0$. We…
We investigate the collision of a new class of topological defects that tends to become compact as a control parameter increases to larger and larger values These new compactlike defects have, in general, more than one internal discrete…
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…
Scattering by (a) a single composite scatterer consisting of a concentric arrangement of an outer N-slit rigid cylinder and an inner cylinder which is either rigid or in the form of a thin elastic shell and (b) by a finite periodic array of…
This paper presents a study of acoustic scattering by a cylinder of either infinite or finite length near a flat pressure-release surface. A novel self-consistent method is developed to describe the multiple scattering interactions between…
We study collisions of coherent structures in higher-order field-theoretic models, such as the $\phi^8$, $\phi^{10}$ and $\phi^{12}$ ones. The main distinguishing feature, of the example models considered herein, is that the collision…
In this work, kink-antikink collision in a two-dimensional Lorentz-violating $\phi^4$ model is considered. It is shown that the Lorentz-violating term in the proposed model does not affect the structure of the linear perturbation spectrum…
The two major effects observed in collisions of the continuum $\phi^4$ kinks are (i) the existence of critical collision velocity above which the kinks always emerge from the collision and (ii) the existence of the escape windows for…
We present a numerical study of the process of the kink-antikink collisions in the coupled one-dimensional two-component $\phi^4$ model. Our results reveal two different soliton solutions which represent double kink configuration and…
Thanks to J.~Schwinger, the process of elastic scattering of neutrons by nuclei is known to depend on the interference between a nuclear amplitude and an electromagnetic one for small scattering angles, resulting in spin asymmetries of a…
We discuss and briefly overview recent progress with studying fluctuations in scattering on a resonance state coupled to the background of many chaotic states. Such a problem arises naturally, e.g., when dealing with wave propagation in the…
The wavefunction for indistinguishable fermions is anti-symmetric under particle exchange, which directly leads to the Pauli exclusion principle, and hence underlies the structure of atoms and the properties of almost all materials. In the…
We investigate kink-antikink collisions in a model characterized by two scalar fields in the presence of geometric constrictions. The model includes an auxiliary function that modifies the kinematics associated with one of the two fields.…
We consider head-on collisions at critical coupling of vortices modelled by the Abelian-Higgs model. We investigate the 2-vortex scattering, whereby the vortices are excited by the shape mode causing fluctuations in the gauge-invariant…
We study the non-integrable $\phi^{6}$ model on the half-line. The model has two topological sectors. We chose solutions from just one topological sector to fix the initial conditions. The scalar field satisfies a Neumann boundary condition…
We study the properties of a relativistic model with logarithmic nonlinearity. We show that such model allows two types of solutions: topologically trivial (gaussons) and topologically non-trivial (kinks), depending on a sign of the…
