Spontaneous nucleation of localized peaks in a multistable nonlinear system
Spontaneous nucleation of localized peaks in a multistable nonlinear system is a scholarly work, published in 2005 in ''Physical Review E''. The main subjects of the publication include phase, nonlinear system, nucleation, thin film, Bifurcation, physics, pattern formation, amplitude, condensed matter physics, statistical physics, and synchronization. The authors show that this occurs when the system is driven through three pattern branches of solutions, accompanied by the appearance of localized peaks with two different amplitudes.
