False vacuum decay in a two-dimensional quantum spin system
Luka PaveÅ¡iÄ, Ian G. Moss, Simone Montangero
False vacuum decay describes the relaxation of a metastable state through the nucleation and growth of bubbles of the stable phase. Despite describing a broad variety of phenomena…

Mitigating boundary effects in finite temperature simulations of false vacuum decay
Kate Brown, Ian G. Moss, Thomas P. Billam
The physics of false vacuum decay during first-order phase transitions in the early universe may be studied in the laboratory via cold-atom analogue simulators. However, a key diff…
