โฆ Synopsis
The evolution of a randomly modulated kink in the sine-Gordon equation is investigated. The distribution function for the kink velocity is found using the inverse scattering transform. It is shown that the distribution function has a non-Gaussian form. The most probable and the mean value of the kink velocity are calculated. It is shown that the asymmetry of distribution function grows when velocity increases. The mean energy of emission random waves is found. The waves with wavelength of the same order with the correlation length are shown to be excited more effectively in the system.
