Analytical solutions for two heteronuclear atoms in a ring trap

Quantum Gases 2012-08-02 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We consider two heteronuclear atoms interacting with a short-range δ\delta potential and confined in a ring trap. By taking the Bethe-ansatz-type wavefunction and considering the periodic boundary condition properly, we derive analytical solutions for the heteronuclear system. The eigen-energies represented in terms of quasi-momentums can then be determined by solving a set of coupled equations. We present a number of results, which display different features from the case of identical atoms. Our result can be reduced to the well-known Lieb-Liniger solution when two interacting atoms have the same masses.
