Kink scattering in a generalized Wess-Zumino model

In this paper, kink scattering in the dimensional reduction of bosonic sector a one-parameter family generalized Wess-Zumino models with three vacuum points is discussed. The value model parameter determines specific location vacua. influence arrangements (evolving from collinear vacua to placed at vertices an equilateral triangle) on investigated. Two different regimes can be distinguished: first one, two symmetric BPS kinks/antikinks arise whereas second one new kink/antikink emerges, exception three-fold rotational symmetry case, where topological defects are identical. between kinks thoroughly analyzed. channels have been found: kink-kink reflection and hybridization. last collision gives rise third kink. Resonance phenomena also appear allowing vibrating split into moving away.
