Diffusion in a system of a few distinguishable fermions in a one-dimensional double-well potential

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

Dynamical properties of a few ultra-cold fermions confined in a double-well potential is studied. We show that the dynamics, which is governed by single-particle tunnelings for vanishing interactions, is completely different for strong interactions. Depending on the details of the configuration, for sufficiently strong interactions (repulsions or attractions) the particle flow through the barrier can be accelerated or slowed down. This effect cannot be explained with the single-particle picture. It is clarified with direct inspection to the spectrum of the few-body Hamiltonian.
