Quantum droplets in one-dimensional Bose mixtures: a quantum Monte-Carlo study

Understand

We use exact Quantum Monte Carlo techniques to study the properties of quantum droplets in two-component bosonic mixtures with contact interactions in one spatial dimension.

• We systematically study the surface tension, the density profile and the breathing mode as a function of the number of particles in the droplet and of the ratio of coupling strengths between intra-species repulsion and inter-species attraction.
• We find that deviations from the predictions of the generalized Gross-Pitaevskii equation are small in most cases of interest.
