Dynamics of Phase Separation from Holography

We use holography to develop a physical picture of the real-time evolution of the spinodal instability of a four-dimensional, strongly-coupled gauge theory with a first-order thermal phase transition. The implemented planar symmetry on the gravity side reduces the dynamics to $1+1$ dimensions in the gauge theory. In this dataset, we publish the boundary data of several simulations each in its respective archive. The simulations are all for the same theory as the first evolution of the inhomogeneous triple peak solution published in <strong>arXiv:1703.02948</strong>. They differ in their initial state (initial<strong><em> </em></strong>homogeneous energy density or initial excitation) and longitudinal extent, but are all on a circle in that longitudinal direction due to the periodic boundary condition. Most evolution finish in the preferred universal final state with a single phase separated domain. Their detailed physical analysis can be found in the upcoming paper<strong> arXiv:1905.12544</strong>. 000_Readme.txt provides a quick explanation on the content of each archive. We also provide an optional Mathematica script to plot properties of the stress tensor.
