Gravitational waves from asymmetric oscillon dynamics?

It has been recently suggested that oscillons produced in the early universe from certain asymmetric potentials continue to emit gravitational waves for a number of $e$-folds of expansion after their formation, leading to potentially detectable gravitational wave signals. We revisit this claim by conducting a convergence study using GPU-accelerated lattice simulations and show that numerical errors accumulated with time are significant in low-resolution scenarios, or in scenarios where the run-time causes the resolution to drop below the relevant scales in the problem. Our study suggests that the dominant, growing high frequency peak of the gravitational wave signals in the fiducial "hill-top model" [arXiv:1607.01314] is a numerical artifact.
