The attractive and attractive-repulsive cases show similar features to those found for $δ$ function type of impurities. For the repulsive case, corresponding to a finite width barrier, the soliton behaves completely classically. No tunneling occurs for sub-barrier kinetic energies despite the extended nature of the soliton.Latex source, 5 postscipt figures.
