Abstract We discuss models in which vacua other than our own can be directly observed in the present universe. Models with density-dependent vacuum structure can give rise to ‘non-lethal’-vacua: vacua with lower energy-density than our vacuum, but only in regions with finite Standard Model densities. These models provide an explicit example of a bubble which is confined to a finite region of space and produces potentially detectable signatures, unlike standard Coleman tunneling events where bubbles expand at the speed of light and are never directly observable. We study the expansion and contraction of a confined bubble created after a core-collapse supernova, focusing on energy deposition that may be observable in the vicinity of a supernova remnant due to the formation and evolution of a confined bubble. |
