Abstract
The effect of the φ4 kink's internal mode (IM)
during the scattering from a -symmetric defect is
investigated. It is demonstrated that if a φ4 kink hits the
defect from the gain side, a noticeable IM is excited, while for
the kink coming from the opposite direction the mode excitation is
much weaker. In the case when the kink initially carries IM, the
IM amplitude is affected by the defect if the kink moves from the
gain side and it is not affected when the kink moves in the
opposite direction. A two degree of freedom collective variable
model is shown to be capable of reproducing principal findings of
the present work.
