amangkurat: Idealized (1+1)D nonlinear Klein-Gordon solver

Overview

Numerical solver for the $(1+1)$-dimensional nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation using symplectic pseudo-spectral methods. Features adaptive timestepping, Numba acceleration, and scientific data output.

Key Features:

• Pseudo-spectral Fourier discretization (exponential convergence)
• Størmer-Verlet symplectic integration (structure-preserving)
• Adaptive CFL-based timestepping
• Parallel execution with Numba
• NetCDF4 data output + 3D animations

Mathematical Foundation

Klein-Gordon Equation

$$(1+1)$-dimensional relativistic field equation in natural units ($c = \hbar = 1$):

$$\frac{\partial^2 \phi}{\partial t^2} - \frac{\partial^2 \phi}{\partial x^2} + V'(\phi) = 0$$

Supported Potentials

Potential	$V(\phi)$	$V'(\phi)$	Physics
Linear	$\frac{1}{2}m^2\phi^2$	$m^2\phi$	Free massive scalar field
$\phi^4$	$\frac{\lambda}{4}(\phi^2 - v^2)^2$	$\lambda\phi(\phi^2 - v^2)$	Topological kinks, domain walls
Sine-Gordon	$1 - \cos(\phi)$	$\sin(\phi)$	Breathers, Josephson junctions

Numerical Method

Spatial: Pseudo-spectral Fourier with wavenumbers $k_n = 2\pi n/L$

Temporal: Størmer-Verlet (symplectic leapfrog) $$\phi^{n+1} = 2\phi^n - \phi^{n-1} + \Delta t^2 \left[\nabla^2\phi^n - V'(\phi^n)\right]$$

Stability: CFL condition $\Delta t \leq 0.5/k_{\max}$ enforced via adaptive timestepping

Physical Units

Code uses dimensionless units. Map to physical systems via scale factors:

$\phi^4$ Kinks

Natural scales: Length $\xi = \sqrt{2}/v$, Time $T = \xi/c$, Energy $E_0 = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\lambda v^3$

Context	Length Scale	Time Scale	Application
Particle physics	$\xi \sim 10^{-18}$ m	$T \sim 10^{-26}$ s	Higgs field (theoretical)
Condensed matter	$\xi \sim 10$ nm	$T \sim 1$ ps	Ferromagnetic domain walls
Josephson junctions	$\lambda_J \sim 1$ μm	$T \sim 10$ ps	Superconducting phase

Conversion:

units = result['units']
x_physical = result['x'] * length_scale_physical / units.length_scale

Limitations

• 1D spatial domain only ($(1+1)$D spacetime)
• Periodic boundary conditions (not suitable for scattering)
• Uniform grid (no adaptive mesh refinement)
• CFL-limited timestep (explicit integration)
• Requires smooth solutions (spectral methods)
