In this Zenodo deposit we include the data used to make three key figures in our paper, showing our final nucleation rate results. The columns of the raw data files are labelled. In each case, the quantity being tabulated is the logarithm of the nucleation rate, typically labelledlogGammain our data files. We also include plotting scripts to generate the figures from the data. The directorya_limitcontains the extrapolation to zero lattice spacing, with the raw data in the filea_limit_data. The temperatureTis fixed to our benchmark point of 93.121 GeV. The linear sizeNxand the lattice spacingaare varied to give a constant total volume. The filea_limit_lin_op_datacontains our comparison measurement using the linear order parameter. The scriptplot_a_limit.pyperforms a nonlinear least squares fit to a cubic, writes the continuum extrapolated nuclation rate result to stdout, and plots the data and the fit. The directoryvol_limitcontains the extrapolation to infinite volume, with the raw data in the filevol_limit_data. Here the temperatureT=93.121 GeV and lattice spacinga=1.5 are fixed, while the linear sizeNxis varied. The scriptplot_vol_limit.pyperforms a nonlinear least squares fit to an exponential function, writes the infinite volume limit nucleation rate result to stdout, and again plots the data and the fit. The directoryrate_reweightedcontains the data needed to plot the nucleation rate as a function of temperature. This plot combines lattice data and various perturbative estimates of the nucleation rate. The lattice data are in three files: rate_lattice_BM2_vol_limitcontains the infinite volume limit result at the simulated lattice temperatureT=93.121 GeV and with lattice spacinga=1.5. rate_lattice_BM2reweights the lattice data to different temperatures and then takes the infinite volume limit. rate_lattice_BM2_Nx40_a1.5contains data reweighted from the simulation at fixed volumeNx=40. In each lattice data file, the temperature, continuum potential parameters and nucleation rate are given. The perturbative results are in three files,rate_perturbative_BM2_rg_low,rate_perturbative_BM2andrate_perturbative_BM2_rg_high, corresponding to the three RG scales mentioned in the text. These files again contain the temperature and continuum lattice parameters. The columnepsgives the dimensionless loop expansion parameter around the metastable phase within the EFT. The columnlogGamma_0gives the tree level result,logGamma_AandlogGamma_Bthe LPA results with the two options for dealing with the imaginary parts described in the text, andlogGamma_1is the one loop result. The scriptplot_rate_reweighted.pyplots all of these data together. For the tree level and one loop cases, the error bands plotted correspond to the minimum and maximum values of the nucleation rate across the three RG scales. For the LPA results, the bands include the extreme values for all six options including the two approaches to handling the imaginary parts. In each case, the plots are saved to PDF and PNG plot files. The figures used in this deposit and in the paper used the following package versions (obtained with thepipreqspackage): matplotlib==3.5.1 numpy==1.21.5 scipy==1.8.0 seaborn==0.11.2 Note that in Version v1 there was an error in the normalisation of our perturbative tree-level and LPA results which has now been fixed.
