Universal aspects of a strongly interacting impurity in a dilute Bose condensate


Abstract in English

We study the properties of an impurity immersed in a weakly interacting Bose gas, i.e., of a Bose polaron. In the perturbatively-tractable of limit weak impurity-boson interactions many of its properties are known to depend only on the scattering length. Here we demonstrate that for strong (unitary) impurity-boson interactions all static quasiproperties of a Bose polaron in a dilute Bose gas, such as its energy, its residue, its Tans contact and the number of bosons trapped nearby the impurity, depend on the impurity-boson potential via a single parameter.
