Bubble formation in ϕ6 potential
Keyword(s):
The scalar field theory of the ϕ6 potential is studied at zero temperature and at high temperature. The equations of motion are solved numerically to obtain O(4) spherical symmetric and O(3) cylindrical symmetric bounce solutions. These solutions control the rates for tunneling from the false vacuum to the true vacuum by bubble formation. The range of validity of the thin-wall approximation is investigated. An analytical solution for the bounce is presented, which reproduces the action in the thin-wall as well as the thick-wall limits. PACS Nos.: 11.10.Ef, 05.70.Fh, 11.10.Wx
