22 Oct 1992 | Journal: | Phys.Rev. D47 (1993) 3476-3486 | Subject: | hep-lat | Abstract: | Kramer’s approach to the rate of the thermally activated escape from a metastable state is extended to field theory. Diffusion rate in the 1+1-dimensional Sine-Gordon model as a function of temperature and friction coefficient is evaluated numerically by solving the Langevin equation in real time. A clear crossover from the semiclassical to the high temperature domain is observed. The temperature behaviour of the diffusion rate allows one to determine the kink mass which is found equal to the corresponding classical value. The Kramer’s predictions for the dependence on viscosity are qualitatively valid in this multidimensional case. In the limit of vanishing friction the diffusion rate is shown to coincide with the one obtained from the direct measurements of the conventional classical real-time Green function at finite temperature. | Source: | arXiv, hep-lat/9210027 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
