Abstract. – We study a one-dimensional Bose system with repulsive δ-function interaction in the presence of an SU(2) intrinsic degree of freedom on the basis of the coordinate Betheansatz. The ground state and the low-lying excitations are determined by both numerical and analytical methods. It is shown that the ground state is an isospin-ferromagnetic state, and the excitations are composed of three elementary particles: holons, antiholons, and isospinons. The isospinon is a triplet coupled to the “ferromagnetic ” background anti-parallelly. Exactly solvable models [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16] play an important role in physics, specifically in the investigation of one-dimensional (1D) interacting many-particle systems. They have served as a source of inspiration for the understanding of non-perturbative phenomena in correlated electronic systems; e. g., the spinon was explicitly characterised on the basis of the exact solution of the Hubbard model [6]. Among these models, an earlier prototypical one is the model of 1D bosons with repulsive δ-function interaction, which was solved [7] by means of the Bethe-ansatz. This method was also applied to solve the problem of spin-1/2 fermions [8,9] with δ-function interaction; in fact, Yang [9] already suggested a general strategy for multi-component systems. Various extensions include the study of electrons on
