Abstract: We describe completely 2-solitary waves related to the ground state of the nonlinear damped Klein-Gordon equation �egin{equation*} partial_{tt}u+2alphapartial_{t}u-Delta u+u-|u|^{p-1}u=0 end{equation*} on , for 1leqNleq5 and energy subcritical exponents p>2. The description is twofold. First, we prove that 2-solitary waves with same sign do not exist. Second, we construct and classify the full family of 2-solitary waves in the case of opposite signs. Close to the sum of two remote solitary waves, it turns out that only the components of the initial data in the unstable direction of each ground state are relevant in the large time asymptotic behavior of the solution. In particular, we show that 2-solitary waves have a universal behavior: the distance between the solitary waves is asymptotic to logt as toinfty. This behavior is due to damping of the initial data combined with strong interactions between the solitary waves.
