Polarons in Binary Bose-Einstein Condensates
Abstract
Bose polarons are quasiparticles formed through the interaction between impurities and Bose-Einstein condensates. In this paper, we derive an effective Fr\"{o}hlich Hamiltonian using the generalized Bogoliubov transformation. The effective Fr\"{o}hlich Hamiltonian encompasses two types of effective interactions: impurity-density (ID) coupling and impurity-spin (IS) coupling. Furthermore, we employ the Lee-Low-Pines variational approach to investigate the relevant properties of Bose polarons induced by the ID and IS coupling. These properties include the ground state energy, effective mass, and average number of virtual phonons. Our findings reveal that the contribution resulting from IS couplings to the ground energy decreases to zero near the miscible-immiscible boundary. Additionally, the increase of the IS coupling induces a greater number of virtual phonons, impeding the movement of impurities and leading to a significant increase in the effective mass of Bose polarons.
