We investigate the quantum dynamics of two bosons, trapped in a two-dimensional harmonic trap, upon quenching arbitrarily their interaction strength thereby covering the entire energy spectrum. Utilizing the exact analytical solution of the stationary system we derive a closed analytical form of the expansion coefficients of the time-evolved two-body wavefunction, whose dynamics is determined by an expansion over the postquench eigenstates. The emergent dynamical response of the system is analyzed in detail by inspecting several observables such as the fidelity, the reduced one-body densities, the radial probability density of the relative wavefunction in both real and momentum space as well as the Tan contact unveiling the existence of short range two-body correlations. It is found that when the system is initialized in its bound state it is perturbed in the most efficient manner compared to any other initial configuration. Moreover, starting from an interacting ground state the two-boson response is enhanced for quenches towards the non-interacting limit.

We have investigated spin dynamics in a 2D quantum gas. Through spin-changing collisions, two clouds with opposite spin orientations are spontaneously created in a Bose-Einstein condensate. After ballistic expansion, both clouds acquire ring-shaped density distributions with superimposed angular density modulations. The density distributions depend on the applied magnetic field and are well explained by a simple Bogoliubov model. We show that the two clouds are anti-correlated in momentum space. The observed momentum correlations pave the way towards the creation of an atom source with non-local Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen entanglement.
We derive an integral equation describing $N$ two-dimensional bosons with zero-range interactions and solve it for the ground state energy $B_N$ by applying a stochastic diffusion Monte Carlo scheme for up to 26 particles. We confirm and go beyond the scaling $B_Npropto 8.567^N$ predicted by Hammer and Son [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 93}, 250408 (2004)] in the large-$N$ limit.
As dipolar gases become more readily accessible in experiment there is a need to develop a comprehensive theoretical framework of the few-body physics of these systems. Here, we extend the coupled-pair approach developed for the unitary two-component Fermi gas to a few-body system of dipolar bosons in a spherical harmonic trap. The long range and anisotropy of the dipole-dipole interaction is handled by a flexible and efficient correlated gaussian basis with stochastically variational optimisation. We calculate the eigenenergy spectrum and structural properties of two and three trapped bosonic dipoles. This demonstrates the efficiency and flexibility of the coupled-pair approach at dealing with systems with complex interactions.
We unravel the stationary properties and the interaction quench dynamics of two bosons, confined in a two-dimensional anisotropic harmonic trap. A transcendental equation is derived giving access to the energy spectrum and revealing the dependence of the energy gaps on the anisotropy parameter. The relation between the two and the one dimensional scattering lengths as well as the Tan contacts is established. The contact, capturing the two-body short range correlations, shows an increasing tendency for a larger anisotropy. Subsequently, the interaction quench dynamics from attractive to repulsive values and vice versa is investigated for various anisotropies. A closed analytical form of the expansion coefficients of the two-body wavefunction, during the time evolution is constructed. The response of the system is studied by means of the time-averaged fidelity, the spectra of the spatial extent of the cloud in each direction and the one-body density. It is found that as the anisotropy increases, the system becomes less perturbed independently of the interactions while for fixed anisotropy quenches towards the non-interacting regime perturb the system in the most efficient manner. Furthermore, we identify that in the tightly confined direction more frequencies are involved in the dynamics stemming from higher-lying excited states.
Tunneling in a many-body system appears as one of the novel implications of quantum physics, in which particles move in space under an otherwise classically-forbidden potential barrier. Here, we theoretically describe the quantum dynamics of the tunneling phenomenon of a few intricate bosonic clouds in a closed system of a two-dimensional symmetric double-well potential. We examine how the inclusion of the transverse direction, orthogonal to the junction of the double-well, can intervene in the tunneling dynamics of bosonic clouds. We use a well-known many-body numerical method, called the multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree for bosons (MCTDHB) method. MCTDHB allows one to obtain accurately the time-dependent many-particle wavefunction of the bosons which in principle entails all the information of interest about the system under investigation. We analyze the tunneling dynamics by preparing the initial state of the bosonic clouds in the left well of the double-well either as the ground, longitudinally or transversely excited, or a vortex state. We unravel the detailed mechanism of the tunneling process by analyzing the evolution in time of the survival probability, depletion and fragmentation, and the many-particle position, momentum, and angular-momentum expectation values and their variances. As a general rule, all objects lose coherence while tunneling through the barrier and the states which include transverse excitations do so faster. Implications are briefly discussed.
