When an impurity is immersed in a Bose-Einstein condensate, impurity-boson interactions are expected to dress the impurity into a quasiparticle, the Bose polaron. We superimpose an ultracold atomic gas of $^{87}$Rb with a much lower density…
Quasiparticles are emergent excitations of matter that underlie much of our understanding of quantum many-body systems. Therefore, the prospect of manipulating their properties with external fields -- or even destroying them -- has both…
