Super-Tonks-Girardeau regime in trapped one-dimensional dipolar gases

Abstract

Possible signatures are discussed of a super-Tonks-Girardeau gas in bosonic systems of trapped quasi-one-dimensional dipoles at zero temperature. We provide an estimation of the frequency of the lowest compressional mode and compare it to analytical results derived using the harmonic approach in the high-density regime. We construct an exact mapping of the ground-state wave function of a one-dimensional dipolar system of bosons, fermions, and a Bose-Fermi mixture and conclude that the local properties and energy are the same at zero temperature. The question as to what extent the dipolar potential can be treated as long or short range is discussed.

Super-Tonks-Girardeau State in an Attractive One-Dimensional Dipolar Gas

Marvin D. Girardeau, G. E. Astrakharchik

The ground state of a one-dimensional (1D) quantum gas of dipoles oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, with a strong 1/x(3) repulsive potential, is studied at low 1D densities n. Near contact the dependence of the many-body wave function on the separation x(jℓ) of two particles reduces to a two-body wave function Ψ(rel)(x(jℓ)). Immediately after a sudden rotation of the dipoles so that they are parallel to the longitudinal axis, this wave function will still be that of the repulsive potential, but since the potential is now that of the attractive potential, it will not be stationary. It is shown that as nd(2)→0 the rate of change of this wave function approaches zero. It follows that for small values of nd(2), this state is metastable and is an analog of the super Tonks-Girardeau state of bosons with a strong zero-range attraction. The dipolar system is equivalent to a spinor Fermi gas with spin z components σ(↑)=[perpendicular] (perpendicular to the longitudinal axis) and σ(↓)=[parallel] (parallel to the longitudinal axis). A Fermi-Fermi mapping from spinor to spinless Fermi gas followed by the standard 1960 Fermi-Bose mapping reduces the Fermi system to a Bose gas. Potential experiments realizing the sudden spin rotation with ultracold dipolar gases are discussed, and a few salient properties of these states are accurately evaluated by a Monte Carlo method.

Ground-state properties of few dipolar bosons in a quasi-one-dimensional harmonic trap

F. Deuretzbacher, Jonas C. Cremon, S. M. Reimann

We study the ground state of few bosons with repulsive dipole-dipole interaction in a quasi-one-dimensional harmonic trap by means of the exact diagonalization method. Up to three interaction regimes are found, depending on the strength of the dipolar interaction and the ratio of transverse to axial oscillator lengths: a regime where the dipolar Bose gas resembles a system of weakly $\ensuremath{\delta}$-interacting bosons, a second regime where the bosons are fermionized, and a third regime where the bosons form a Wigner crystal. In the first two regimes, the dipole-dipole potential can be replaced by a $\ensuremath{\delta}$ potential. In the crystalline state, the overlap between the localized wave packets is strongly reduced and all the properties of the boson system equal those of its fermionic counterpart. The transition from the Tonks-Girardeau gas to the solidlike state is accompanied by a rapid increase of the interaction energy and a considerable change of the momentum distribution, which we trace back to the different short-range correlations in the two interaction regimes.

Tonks-Girardeau and super-Tonks-Girardeau states of a trapped one-dimensional spinor Bose gas

Marvin D. Girardeau

A harmonically trapped, ultracold, one-dimensional (1D) spin-1 Bose gas with strongly repulsive or attractive 1D even-wave interactions induced by a three-dimensional (3D) Feshbach resonance is studied. The exact ground state, a hybrid of Tonks-Girardeau (TG) and ideal Fermi gases, is constructed in the TG limit of infinite even-wave repulsion by a spinor Fermi-Bose mapping to a spinless ideal Fermi gas. It is then shown that in the limit of infinite even-wave attraction this same state remains an exact many-body eigenstate, now highly excited relative to the collapsed generalized McGuire-cluster ground state, showing that the hybrid TG state is completely stable against collapse to this cluster ground state under a sudden switch from infinite repulsion to infinite attraction. It is shown to be the TG limit of a hybrid super-Tonks-Girardeau (STG) state, which is metastable under a sudden switch from finite but very strong repulsion to finite but very strong attraction. It should be possible to create it experimentally by a sudden switch from strongly repulsive to strongly attractive interaction, as in the recent Innsbruck experiment on a spin-polarized bosonic STG gas. In the case of strong attraction, there should also exist another STG state of much lower energy, consisting of strongly bound dimers, a bosonic analog of a recently predicted STG state which is an ultracold gas of strongly bound bosonic dimers of fermionic atoms, but it is shown that this STG state cannot be created by such a switch from strong repulsion to strong attraction.

Luttinger hydrodynamics of confined one-dimensional Bose gases with dipolar interactions

R. Citro, S. De Palo, E. Orignac +2 more

Ultracold bosonic and fermionic quantum gases confined to quasi-one-dimensional (1D) geometry are promising candidates for probing fundamental concepts of Luttinger liquid (LL) physics. They can also be exploited for devising applications in quantum information processing and precision measurements. Here, we focus on 1D dipolar Bose gases, where evidence of super-strong coupling behavior has been demonstrated by analyzing the low-energy static and dynamical structures of the fluid at zero temperature by a combined reptation quantum Monte Carlo (RQMC) and bosonization approach. Fingerprints of LL behavior emerge in the whole crossover from the already strongly interacting Tonks–Girardeau at low density to a dipolar density wave regime at high density. We have also shown that a LL framework can be effectively set up and utilized to describe this strongly correlated crossover physics in the case of confined 1D geometries after using the results for the homogeneous system in LL hydrodynamic equations within a local density approximation. This leads to the prediction of observable quantities such as the frequencies of the collective modes of the trapped dipolar gas under the more realistic conditions that could be found in ongoing experiments. The present paper provides a description of the theoretical framework in which the above results have been worked out, making available all the detailed derivations of the hydrodynamic Luttinger equations for the inhomogeneous trapped gas and of the correlation functions for the homogeneous system.

Probing an effective-range-induced super fermionic Tonks-Girardeau gas with ultracold atoms in one-dimensional harmonic traps

Xiao-Long Chen, Xia-Ji Liu, Hui Hu

We theoretically investigate an ultracold spin-polarized atomic Fermi gas with resonant odd-channel $(p$-wave) interactions trapped in one-dimensional harmonic traps. We solve the Yang-Yang thermodynamic equations based on the exact Bethe ansatz solution, and predict the finite-temperature density profile and breathing mode frequency by using a local density approximation to take into account the harmonic trapping potential. The system features an exotic super fermionic Tonks-Girardeau (super-fTG) phase, due to the large effective range of the interatomic interactions. We explore the parameter space for such a fascinating super-fTG phase at finite temperature and provide smoking-gun signatures of its existence in both breathing mode frequencies and density profiles. Our results suggest that the super-fTG phase can be readily probed at temperatures of about $0.1{T}_{F}$, where ${T}_{F}$ is the Fermi temperature. These results are to be confronted with future cold-atom experiments with $^{6}\mathrm{Li}$ and $^{40}\mathrm{K}$ atoms.

Bosons in Cigar-Shaped Traps: Thomas-Fermi Regime, Tonks-Girardeau Regime, and In Between

Vanja Dunjko, V. Lorent, Maxim Olshanii

We present a quantitative analysis of the experimental accessibility of the Tonks-Girardeau gas in present-day experiments with cigar-trapped alkalis. For this purpose we derive, using a Bethe ansatz generated local equation of state, a set of hydrostatic equations describing one-dimensional, delta-interacting Bose gases trapped in a harmonic potential. The resulting solutions cover the entire range of atomic densities.
