Reduced one-body density matrix of Tonks–Girardeau gas at finite temperature

Abstract

With thermal Bose–Fermi mapping method, we investigate the Tonks–Girardeau gas at finite temperature. It is shown that at low temperature, the Tonks gas displays the Fermi-like density profiles, and with the increase in temperature, the Tonks gas distributes in wider region. The reduced one-body density matrix is diagonal dominant in the whole temperature region, and the off-diagonal elements shall vanish rapidly with the deviation from the diagonal part at high temperature.

The properties of Tonks–Girardeau gas at finite temperature and comparison with spin-polarized fermions

Yajiang Hao, Yafei Song, Xiaochen Fu

In the present paper, we investigate the Tonks–Girardeau (TG) gas confined in a harmonic trap at finite temperature with thermal Bose–Fermi mapping method. The pair distribution, density distribution, reduced one-body density matrix (ROBDM), the first-order correlation function, the occupations number of natural orbitals and momentum distribution are evaluated. In the whole temperature regime, the pair distribution and density distribution exhibit the same properties as those of spin-polarized fermions because both of them depend on the modulus of wavefunction rather than wavefunction. While the ROBDM, the first-order correlation function, the natural orbital occupation, momentum distribution, which depend on wavefunction, of Tonks gas displays Bose properties different from spin-polarized fermions at low temperature. At high temperature we cannot distinguish Tonks gas from the spin-polarized Fermi gas qualitatively by all properties.

Correlation in momentum space of Tonks–Girardeau gas

Yajiang Hao, Yiwang Liu, Xiangguo Yin

In momentum space, we investigate the correlation properties of the ground state of Tonks–Girardeau gases. With Bose–Fermi mapping method, the exact ground state wavefunction in coordinate space can be obtained based on the wavefunction of spin-polarized Fermions. By Fourier transformation we obtain the ground state wavefunction in momentum space, and therefore the pair correlation and the reduced one-body density matrix (ROBDM) in momentum space, whose diagonal part is the momentum distribution. The ROBDM in momentum space is the Fourier transformation of the ROBDM in coordinate space and the pair correlation in momentum space is the Fourier transformation of the reduced two-body density matrix in coordinate space. The correlations in momentum space display larger values only in small momentum region and vanish in most other regions. The lowest natural orbital and occupation distribution in momentum space are also obtained.

One-dimensional magnetized Tonks–Girardeau gas properties in an external magnetic field

Zhao Liang Wang, An Min Wang

With Girardeau's Fermi–Bose mapping, we have constructed the eigenstates of the Tonks–Girardeau (TG) gas in an external magnetic field. When the number of bosons N is commensurate with the number of potential cycles M , the probability of this TG gas in the ground state is bigger than the TG gas raised by Girardeau in 1960. Through the comparison of properties between this TG gas and Fermi gas, we find that the following issues are always the same: their average value of particle coordinates and potential energies, system total momenta, single-particle densities and pair distribution functions. But the reduced single-particle density matrices and their momentum distributions between them are different.

One-particle density matrix and momentum distribution of the out-of-equilibrium one-dimensional Tonks-Girardeau gas: Analytical results at large N

Stefano Scopa, Paola Ruggiero, Pasquale Calabrese +1 more

In one-dimensional (1D) quantum gases, the momentum distribution (MD) of the atoms is a standard experimental observable, routinely measured in various experimental setups. The MD is sensitive to correlations, and it is notoriously hard to compute theoretically for large numbers of atoms $N$, which often prevents direct comparison with experimental data. Here we report significant progress on this problem for the 1D Tonks-Girardeau (TG) gas in the asymptotic limit of large $N$, at zero temperature and driven out of equilibrium by a quench of the confining potential. We find an exact analytical formula for the one-particle density matrix $\ensuremath{\langle}{\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}}}^{\ifmmode\dagger\else\textdagger\fi{}}(x)\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}}({x}^{\ensuremath{'}})\ensuremath{\rangle}$ of the out-of-equilibrium TG gas in the $N\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}$ limit, valid on distances $|x\ensuremath{-}{x}^{\ensuremath{'}}|$ much larger than the interparticle distance. By comparing with time-dependent Bose-Fermi mapping numerics, we demonstrate that our analytical formula can be used to compute the out-of-equilibrium MD with great accuracy for a wide range of momenta (except in the tails of the distribution at very large momenta). For a quench from a double-well potential to a single harmonic well, which mimics a ``quantum Newton cradle'' setup, our method predicts the periodic formation of peculiar, multiply peaked, momentum distributions.

Fermionization of a strongly interacting Bose-Fermi mixture in a one-dimensional harmonic trap

Bess Fang, Patrizia Vignolo, Christian Miniatura +1 more

We consider a strongly interacting one-dimensional (1D) Bose-Fermi mixture confined in a harmonic trap. It consists of a Tonks-Girardeau (TG) gas (1D Bose gas with repulsive hard-core interactions) and of a noninteracting Fermi gas (1D spin-aligned Fermi gas), both species interacting through hard-core repulsive interactions. Using a generalized Bose-Fermi mapping, we determine the one-body density matrices, exact particle density profiles, momentum distributions, and behavior of the mixture under 1D expansion when opening the trap. In real space, bosons and fermions do not display any phase separation: the respective density profiles extend over the same region and they both present a number of peaks equal to the total number of particles in the trap. In momentum space the bosonic component has the typical narrow TG profile, while the fermionic component shows a broad distribution with fermionic oscillations at small momenta. Due to the large boson-fermion repulsive interactions, both the bosonic and the fermionic momentum distributions decay as $C{p}^{\ensuremath{-}4}$ at large momenta, like in the case of a pure bosonic TG gas. The coefficient $C$ is related to the two-body density matrix and to the bosonic concentration in the mixture. When opening the trap, both momentum distributions ``fermionize'' under expansion and turn into that of a Fermi gas with a particle number equal to the total number of particles in the mixture.
