We study the response of one-dimensional liquid $^4$He to weak perturbations relying on the dynamical structure factor, $S(q,\omega)$, recently obtained via ab-initio techniques [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 135302 (2016)]. We evaluate the drag…

The longitudinal (e,e') response function of 4He is calculated precisely with full final state interaction. The explicit calculation of the four-body continuum states is avoided by the method of integral transforms. Precision tests of the…
