Inhomogeneous quantum quenches

We study the problem of a quantum quench in which the initial state is the ground state of an inhomogeneous Hamiltonian, in two different models, conformal field theory and ordinary free field theory, which are known to exhibit thermalization of finite regions in the homogeneous case. We derive gene...
