Phase diagram of soft-core bosons in two dimensions

Quantum Gases 2015-05-27 v1

Abstract

The low temperature phase diagram of Bose soft disks in two dimensions is studied by numerical simulations. It is shown that a supersolid cluster phase exists, within a range of the model parameters, analogous to that recently observed for a system of aligned dipoles interacting via a softened potential at short distance. These findings indicate that a long-range tail of the interaction is unneeded to obtain such a phase, and that the soft-core repulsive interaction is the minimal model for supersolidity.
