Atom-dimer scattering below the three-body break-up threshold is studied for a system of three identical bosons. The atom-dimer scattering length and the energy of the most weakly-bound three-body state are shown to be strongly correlated.…
This paper deals with the study of the behaviour of the wave functions of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate in the case of weak segregation. This amounts to the study of the asymptotic behaviour of a heteroclinic connection in a…
We introduce a family of correlated trial wave functions for the $N$-particle ground state of an interacting Bose gas in a harmonic trap. For large $N$, the correlations lead to a relative energy decrease of a fraction $3/5N$, compared to…

The study of quantum mechanical few-body systems is a century old pursuit relevant to countless subfields of physics. While the two-body problem is generally considered to be well-understood theoretically and numerically, venturing to three…
Non-thermal fixed points in the evolution of a quantum many-body system quenched far out of equilibrium manifest themselves in a scaling evolution of correlations in space and time. We develop a low-energy effective theory of non-thermal…
How and why may an interacting system of many particles be described assuming that all particles are independent and identically distributed ? This question is at least as old as statistical mechanics itself. Its quantum version has been…

The observation of non-classical correlations arising in interacting two to size weakly coupled Bose-Einstein condensates was recently reported by Esteve et al. [Nature 455, 1216 (2008)]. In order to observe fluctuations below the standard…
