Understand

We follow the time evolution of nonabelian gauge bosons from far-from-equilibrium initial conditions to thermal equilibrium by numerically solving an effective kinetic equation that becomes accurate in the weak coupling limit.

We consider initial conditions that are either highly overoccupied or underoccupied.
We find that overoccupied systems thermalize through a turbulent cascade reaching equilibrium in multiples of a thermalization time $t\approx 72./ (1-0.12\log \lambda)/\lambda^2 T$, whereas underoccupied systems undergo a "bottom-up" thermalization in a time $t\approx (34.
