We consider one-dimensional tubes containing bosonic polar molecules. The long-range dipole-dipole interactions act both within a single tube and between different tubes. We consider arbitrary values of the externally aligned dipole moments…
Following two recent papers [Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 2015, \textbf{17}, 3196; Mol. Phys. 2015, \textbf{113}, 1843], we perform a larger-scale study of chemical structure in one dimension (1D). We identify a wide, and occasionally…
