Abstract
Exact solutions are obtained for the thermal decay of a metastable state for two different forms of the potential and for uniform and localized boundary conditions by using the Laplace transform method. The exact inverse Laplace transforms are found for a symmetric case, and the results are compared with other calculations and with the Kramers rate.
