We investigate the higher repulsive branches of one-dimensional (1D) bosonic and fermionic quantum gases beyond the super-Tonks-Girardeau regime, utilizing the Bethe-Ansatz method and exact diagonalization of small trapped clusters. In contrast to the well-studied lowest branches that are characterized by spin-charge separation, we demonstrate the emergence of strong spin-charge correlation in all higher branches with hard-core interactions. This manifests in distinct quasi-momentum distributions and energy spectra for bosons and spin-1/2 fermions, despite their fermionization. Furthermore, trapped fermions in higher branches exhibit novel spin textures, intricately linked to charge excitations, necessitating a coupled multi-chain description beyond single effective spin-chain models. Our findings unveil a rich interplay between spin and charge degrees of freedom in highly excited 1D systems, opening avenues for exploring novel quantum phenomena beyond the conventional paradigm of low-lying states.
We combine the first-quantized path-integral formalism and bosonization to develop a phenomenological theory for spin-charge-coupled dynamics in one-dimensional (1D) ferromagnetic systems with strong interparticle repulsion, at low temperatures. We assume an effective spin-charge separation and retain the standard Luttinger-liquid plasmon branch, which is explicitly coupled to a ferromagnetic spin-wave texture with a quadratic dispersion. The dynamic spin structure severely suppresses the plasmon peak in the single-particle propagator, in both fermionic and bosonic systems. Our analysis provides an effective theory for the new universality class of 1D ferromagnetic systems, capturing both the trapped spin and propagating spin-wave regimes of the long-time behavior.
The current efforts of studying many-body effects with spin-orbit coupling (SOC) using alkali-metal atoms are impeded by the heating effects due to spontaneous emission. Here, we show that even for SOCs too weak to cause any heating, dramatic many-body effects can emerge in a one-dimensional (1D) spin-
21 Fermi gas provided the interaction is sufficiently repulsive. For weak repulsion, the effect of a weak SOC (with strength $\ensuremath{\Omega}$) is perturbative, inducing a weak spin spiral (with magnitude proportional to $\ensuremath{\Omega}$). However, as the repulsion
g increases beyond a critical value (${g}_{c}\ensuremath{\sim}1/\ensuremath{\Omega}$), the magnitude of the spin spiral rises rapidly to a value of order 1 (independent of $\ensuremath{\Omega}$). Moreover, near $g=+\ensuremath{\infty}$, the spins of neighboring fermions can interfere destructively due to quantum fluctuations of particle motion, strongly distorting the spin spiral and pulling the spins substantially away from the direction of the local field at various locations. These effects are consequences of the spin-charge separation in the strongly repulsive limit. They will also occur in other 1D quantum gases with higher spins.
