Polaronic properties of an impurity in a Bose-Einstein condensate in reduced dimensions
arXiv:1203.4420 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.86.043614
Abstract
The application of optical lattices allows a tuning of the geometry of Bose-Einstein condensates to effectively reduced dimensions. In the context of solid state physics the consideration of the low-dimensional Fröhlich polaron results in an extension of the polaronic strong coupling regime. With this motivation we apply the Jensen-Feynman variational principle to calculate the ground state properties of the polaron consisting of an impurity in a Bose-Einstein condensate in reduced dimensions. Also the response of this system to Bragg scattering is calculated. We show that reducing the dimension leads to a larger amplitude of the polaronic features and is expected to facilitate the experimental observation of polaronic properties. In optical lattices not only Feshbach resonances but also confinement-induced resonances can be used to tune the polaronic coupling strength. This opens up the possibility to experimentally reveal the intermediate and strong polaronic coupling regimes and resolve outstanding theoretical questions regarding polaron theory.
