A new form of liquid matter: Quantum droplets

ZH Luo, W Pang, B Liu, YY Li, BA Malomed - Frontiers of Physics, 2021 - Springer
This brief review summarizes recent theoretical and experimental results which predict and
establish the existence of quantum droplets (QDs), ie, robust two-and three-dimensional (2D …

Feshbach resonances in ultracold gases

C Chin, R Grimm, P Julienne, E Tiesinga - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2010 - APS
Feshbach resonances are the essential tool to control the interaction between atoms in
ultracold quantum gases. They have found numerous experimental applications, opening up …

Quantum liquid droplets in a mixture of Bose-Einstein condensates

CR Cabrera, L Tanzi, J Sanz, B Naylor, P Thomas… - Science, 2018 - science.org
Quantum droplets are small clusters of atoms self-bound by the balance of attractive and
repulsive forces. Here, we report on the observation of droplets solely stabilized by contact …

Quantum field simulator for dynamics in curved spacetime

C Viermann, M Sparn, N Liebster, M Hans, E Kath… - nature, 2022 - nature.com
In most cosmological models, rapid expansion of space marks the first moments of the
Universe and leads to the amplification of quantum fluctuations. The description of …

Observation of quantum droplets in a heteronuclear bosonic mixture

C D'Errico, A Burchianti, M Prevedelli, L Salasnich… - Physical Review …, 2019 - APS
We report on the formation of heteronuclear quantum droplets in an attractive bosonic
mixture of K 41 and Rb 87. We observe long-lived self-bound states, both in free space and …

Bright soliton to quantum droplet transition in a mixture of Bose-Einstein condensates

P Cheiney, CR Cabrera, J Sanz, B Naylor, L Tanzi… - Physical review …, 2018 - APS
Attractive Bose-Einstein condensates can host two types of macroscopic self-bound states:
bright solitons and quantum droplets. Here, we investigate the connection between them …

Quantum mechanical stabilization of a collapsing Bose-Bose mixture

DS Petrov - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
According to the mean-field theory a condensed Bose-Bose mixture collapses when the
interspecies attraction becomes stronger than the geometrical average of the intraspecies …

Observation of attractive and repulsive polarons in a Bose-Einstein condensate

NB Jørgensen, L Wacker, KT Skalmstang, MM Parish… - Physical review …, 2016 - APS
The problem of an impurity particle moving through a bosonic medium plays a fundamental
role in physics. However, the canonical scenario of a mobile impurity immersed in a Bose …

Ultradilute low-dimensional liquids

DS Petrov, GE Astrakharchik - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
We calculate the energy of one-and two-dimensional weakly interacting Bose-Bose mixtures
analytically in the Bogoliubov approximation and by using the diffusion Monte Carlo …

Anderson localization of a non-interacting Bose–Einstein condensate

G Roati, C D'Errico, L Fallani, M Fattori, C Fort… - Nature, 2008 - nature.com
Anderson localization of waves in disordered media was originally predicted fifty years ago,
in the context of transport of electrons in crystals. The phenomenon is much more general …
