Popis: | Employing the Bethe ansatz approach and numerical simulations of measurements of particles' positions we investigate a post-quench many-body dynamics of attractively interacting bosons on a ring, which in the mean-field approach corresponds to the so-called breather solution. Despite the fact that the initial many-body ground state is translationally invariant, the measurements reveal breather dynamics if quantum fluctuations of the center of mass of the system are extracted. Moreover, the analysis of the many-body evolution shows signatures of dissociation of the solitons that form the breather. Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures accepted for publication in Physical Review A |
