Quantum N-Boson States and Quantized Motion of Solitonic Droplets: Universal Scaling Properties in Low Dimensions

Abstract

In this article, we illustrate the scaling properties of a family of solutions for N attractive bosonic atoms in the limit of large $N$. These solutions represent the quantized dynamics of solitonic degrees of freedom in atomic droplets. In dimensions lower than two, or $d=2-\epsilon$, we demonstrate that the number of isotropic droplet states scales as $N^{3/2}/{\epsilon }^{1/2}$, and for $\epsilon =0$, or $d=2$, scales as $N^2$. The ground state energies scale as $N^{2/\epsilon +1}$ in $d=2-\epsilon$, and when $d=2$, scale as an exponential function of N. We obtain the universal energy spectra and the generalized Tjon relation; their scaling properties are uniquely determined by the asymptotic freedom of quantum bosonic fields at short distances, a distinct feature in low dimensions. We also investigate the effect of quantum loop corrections that arise from various virtual processes and show that the resultant lifetime for a wide range of excited states scales as $N^{\epsilon /2}{E}^{1-\epsilon /2}$.
