We study a system of penetrable bosons on a line, focusing on the high-density/weak-interaction regime, where the ground state is, to a good approximation, a condensate. Under compression, the system clusterizes at zero temperature, i.e.,…

Nano- and microscale particles, such as colloids, commonly interact over ranges much shorter than their diameters, so it is natural to treat them as "sticky," interacting only when they touch exactly. The lowest-energy states, free…
