Modeling Thermal Fluctuations: Phase Mixing and Percolation
Marcelo Gleiser, Andrew F. Heckler, Edward W. Kolb
We consider the nonequilibrium dynamics of a a real scalar field in a degenerate double-well potential. The system is prepared in the lowest free energy state in one of the wells a…
Reply to Comment on ``Dynamics of Weak First Order Phase Transitions''
Marcelo Gleiser
A reply to a Comment by Harris and Jungman (Phys. Rev. Lett. 75 (1995), 588), concerning my work on phase mixing and its implications to the dynamics of ``weak'' first order phase…
Nonperturbative effects on nucleation
Marcelo Gleiser, Andrew F. Heckler
A nonperturbative correction to the thermal nucleation rate of critical bubbles in a first order phase transition is estimated. The correction originates from large-amplitude fluct…
Thermal Mixing of Phases: Numerical and Analytical Studies
Marcelo Gleiser
The dynamics of phase transitions plays a crucial rôle in the so-called interface between high energy particle physics and cosmology. Many of the interesting results generated duri…
Oscillons: Resonant Configurations During Bubble Collapse
E. J. Copeland, M. Gleiser, H. -R. Mueller
Oscillons are localized, non-singular, time-dependent, spherically-symmetric solutions of nonlinear scalar field theories which, although unstable, are extremely long-lived. We sho…
