Soliton solutions of a gauged O(3) sigma model with interpolating potential

Abstract

Soliton modes in a gauged sigma model with interpolating potential have been investigated. Numerical solutions using a fourth order Runge -- Kutta method are discussed. By tuning the interpolation parameter the transition from symmetrybreaking to the symmetric phase is highlighted.
