"Breakdown of integrability in a quasi-one-dimensional ultracold bosonic gas";
Physical Review Letters, 100 (2008), S. 1 - 4.



Kurzfassung englisch:
We demonstrate that virtual excitations of higher radial modes in an atomic Bose gas in a tightly confining waveguide results in effective three-body collisions that violate integrability in this quasi-one-dimensional quantum system and give rise to thermalization. The estimated thermalization rates are consistent with recent experimental results in quasi-1D dynamics of ultracold atoms.
