Animations depicting the dynamics ensuing from the dynamical evolution of sine-Gordon (sG) and φ4 kinks under the influence of the external potential A sech2(x).
The background image depicts the spatial evolution of the kink while the magenta line depicts the corresponding dynamics using our adiabatic invariant reduction.
