One of the major problems in developing new physics scenarios is that very often the parameters can be adjusted such that in perturbation theory almost all experimental low-energy results can be accommodated. It is therefore desirable to…

How a system initially at infinite temperature responds when suddenly placed at finite temperatures is a way to check the existence of phase transitions. It has been shown in [R. da Silva, IJMPC 2023] that phase transitions are imprinted in…
