False vacuum decay in kink scattering

In this work we consider kink-antikink and antikink-kink collisions in a modified \(\phi^4\) model with a false vacuum characterized by a dimensionless parameter \(\epsilon\). The usual \(\phi^4\) model is recovered for \(\epsilon=0\). We investigate the \(\epsilon
