We study the dynamics of a one-dimensional system composed of a bosonic background and one impurity in single- and double-well trapping geometries. In the limit of strong interactions, this system can be modeled by a spin chain where the…
In a system where a boson (e.g, a phonon) of finite frequency $\omega_0$ is coupled to electrons, two phenomena occur as the coupling is increased: electron pairing and polarization of the boson field. Within a path integral formalism and a…
Combining two Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) may result in a miscible or immiscible mixture, or even a violent implosion. We theoretically demonstrate that dipolar two-component BECs produce far richer physics than their nondipolar…
