Impurities and polarons in bosonic quantum gases: a review on recent progress

F Grusdt, N Mostaan, E Demler, LAP Ardila - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
This review describes the field of Bose polarons, arising when mobile impurities are
immersed into a bosonic quantum gas. The latter can be realized by a Bose-Einstein …

Quantum dynamics of ultracold Bose polarons

YE Shchadilova, R Schmidt, F Grusdt, E Demler - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
We analyze the dynamics of Bose polarons in the vicinity of a Feshbach resonance between
the impurity and host atoms. We compute the radio-frequency absorption spectra for the …

Geometry of variational methods: dynamics of closed quantum systems

L Hackl, T Guaita, T Shi, J Haegeman, E Demler… - SciPost Physics, 2020 - scipost.org
We present a systematic geometric framework to study closed quantum systems based on
suitably chosen variational families. For the purpose of (A) real time evolution,(B) excitation …

Bose polarons in ultracold atoms in one dimension: beyond the Fröhlich paradigm

F Grusdt, GE Astrakharchik, E Demler - New Journal of Physics, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
Mobile impurity atoms immersed in Bose–Einstein condensates provide a new platform for
exploring Bose polarons. Recent experimental advances in the field of ultracold atoms make …

Universality of an impurity in a Bose-Einstein condensate

SM Yoshida, S Endo, J Levinsen, MM Parish - Physical Review X, 2018 - APS
We consider the ground-state properties of an impurity particle (“polaron”) resonantly
interacting with a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). Focusing on the equal-mass system, we …

Renormalization group approach to the Fröhlich polaron model: application to impurity-BEC problem

F Grusdt, YE Shchadilova, AN Rubtsov, E Demler - Scientific reports, 2015 - nature.com
When a mobile impurity interacts with a many-body system, such as a phonon bath, a
polaron is formed. Despite the importance of the polaron problem for a wide range of …

Strong-coupling Bose polarons in a Bose-Einstein condensate

F Grusdt, R Schmidt, YE Shchadilova, E Demler - Physical Review A, 2017 - APS
We use a nonperturbative renormalization group approach to develop a unified picture of
the Bose polaron problem, where a mobile impurity is strongly interacting with a surrounding …

Bose polaron and the Efimov effect: A Gaussian-state approach

A Christianen, JI Cirac, R Schmidt - Physical Review A, 2022 - APS
Since the Efimov effect was introduced, a detailed theoretical understanding of Efimov
physics has been developed in the few-body context. However, it has proven challenging to …

[HTML][HTML] Bose polaron as an instance of quantum Brownian motion

A Lampo, SH Lim, MÁ García-March… - Quantum, 2017 - quantum-journal.org
We study the dynamics of a quantum impurity immersed in a Bose-Einstein condensate as
an open quantum system in the framework of the quantum Brownian motion model. We …

New theoretical approaches to Bose polarons

F Grusdt, E Demler - Quantum Matter at Ultralow Temperatures, 2016 - ebooks.iospress.nl
The Frehlich polaron model describes a ubiquitous class of problems concerned with
understanding the properties of a single mobile particle interacting with a bosonic reservoir …
