Supersymmetry and the Bistable Fokker-Planck equation

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
;
The approach to equilibrium in a bistable system is governed by a small eigenvalue which appears to be difficult to compute. We show that supersymmetry makes possible an easy evaluation of this eigenvalue.
