Abstract In many quantum quench experiments involving cold atom systems the post-quench phase can be described by a quantum field theory of free scalars or fermions, typically in a box or in an external potential. We will study mass quench of free scalars in arbitrary spatial dimensions d with particular emphasis on the rate of relaxation to equilibrium. Local correlators expectedly equilibrate to GGE; for quench to zero mass, interestingly the rate of approach to equilibrium is exponential or power law depending on whether d is odd or even respectively. For quench to non-zero mass, the correlators relax to equilibrium by a cosine-modulated power law, for all spatial dimensions d, even or odd. We briefly discuss generalization to O(N ) models.
