  The semiclassical formalism for numerical calculation of the rate of
tunneling transitions induced by N particles with total energy E of order or
higher than the height of the barrier is developed. The formalism is applied to
the induced false vacuum decay in the massive four-dimensional $-\lambda\phi^4$
model. The decay rate, as a function of E and N, is calculated numerically in
the range $0.4\lsim E/E_{sph}\lsim 3.5$ and $0.25 \lsim N/N_{sph}\lsim 1.0$,
where $E_{sph}$ and $N_{sph}$ are the energy and the number of particles in the
analog of the sphaleron configuration. The results imply that the
``two-particle'' cross section of the false vacuum decay is exponentially
suppressed at least up to energies of order $10 E_{sph}$. At $E\sim E_{sph}$,
this exponential suppression is estimated as about 80% of the zero energy
suppression.
