Abstract

We show that the leading semiclassical behavior of soliton form factors at arbitrary momentum transfer is controlled by solutions to a new wavelike integro-differential equation that describes solitons undergoing acceleration. We work in the context of two-dimensional linear σ models with kink solitons for concreteness, but our methods are purely semiclassical and generalizable.
