Coherent oscillations in small Fermi-polaron systems

Abstract: We study the ground state and excitations of a one-dimensional trapped polarized Fermi gas interacting with a single impurity. First, we study the tunneling dynamics of the impurity through a potential barrier, such as one effectively created by a double-well trap. To this end, we perform an exact diagonalization of the full few-body Hamiltonian and analyze the results in a local-density approximation. Off-diagonal and one-particle correlation matrices are studied and are shown to be useful for discerning betw… Show more

“…Different methods have been employed to tackle the many-body problem of bosons in a double-well, even outside the mean-field regime [43][44][45][46][47]. Addressing the subject from a few-body perspective [48][49][50][51][52], however, might lead to new insight on the properties of these systems. Here we show that, in the regime where the repulsion between the impurity and the background is dominant, the system can exhibit non-trivial dynamical effects: the impurity undergoes Josephson-like oscillations when initialized at the edge of the system, and can have its tunneling enhanced when a barrier is present.…”

“…Examples of other problems discussed with the use of the LMT or the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem can be found in Refs. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. On the other hand, there are many attempts to extend these theorems (e.g.…”

“…We notice that this Hamiltonian reproduces the fermionic cases presented, for instance, in refs 33,37 . We focus mostly on the 3 + 1 case, which can be interpreted as a few-body Fermi background in the presence of an impurity 61 . As we will show next, in this simple setup it is already possible to describe the decoupling of spin and density dynamics.…”
