Figure 8: Left: The maximum of the central value of each of the two scalar fields constituting the multi-state BS for the fraction η = 3, where η ≡ N (2)∕N (1) defines the relative “amount” of each state. Right: The frequencies associated with each of the two states of the multi-state BS. At t = 2000, there is a flip in which the excited state (black solid) decays and the scalar field in the ground state (red dashed) becomes excited. Discussed in Section 3.7.
