Collective Coordinate Approach to the Dynamics of Various Soliton-Obstruction Systems

Abstract

Various soliton-obstruction systems have been studied from analytical perspective. We have used collective coordinate to approach the dynamics of solitons as they meet a potential obstruction in a form of square barriers and holes for three models in (1+1) dimensions, namely: $\lambda\phi^{4}$ model, deformed Sine-Gordon model, and a model that give rise to Q-ball solution. We have shown that our approximated field solution is valid enough to describe the behaviour of solitons scattering off a potential obstruction.Comment: 26 pages, 18 figure
