TL;DR: In this article , a weakly-interacting one-dimensional Bose gas with two impurities coupled locally to the boson density was studied and the quantum contribution to the induced interaction was analyzed.
Abstract: We study a weakly-interacting one-dimensional Bose gas with two impurities coupled locally to the boson density. We derive analytical results for the induced interaction between the impurities at arbitrary coupling and separation $r$. At $r\lesssim \xi$, where $\xi$ denotes the healing length of the Bose gas, the interaction is well described by the mean-field contribution. Its form changes as the coupling is increased, approaching a linear function of $r$ at short distances in the regime of strong coupling. The mean-field contribution decays exponentially at arbitrary coupling for $r\gg\xi$. At such long distances, however, the effect of quantum fluctuations becomes important, giving rise to a long-ranged quantum contribution to the induced interaction. At longest distances it behaves as $1/r^3$, while at strong coupling we find an intermediate distance regime with a slower decay, $1/r$. The quantum contribution in the crossover regime is also calculated. The induced interaction between impurities (i.e., polarons) is attractive and leads to the formation of their bound state, known as bipolaron. We discuss its binding energy.

TL;DR: The relation between the bipolaron entanglement and the correlation functions demonstrates that the largeEntanglement corresponds to the large magnitude of lattice deformations induced by electrons.
Abstract: We revisit the two-site Hubbard-Holstein model by using extended phonon coherent states. The nontrivial singlet bipolaron is studied exactly in the whole coupling regime. The ground-state (GS) energy and the double occupancy probability are calculated. The linear entropy is exploited successfully to quantify bipartite entanglement between electrons and their environment phonons, displaying a maximum entanglement of the singlet-bipolaron in strong coupling regime. A dramatic drop in the crossover regime is observed in the GS fidelity and its susceptibility. The bipolaron properties is also characterized classically by correlation functions. It is found that the crossover from a two-site to single-site bipolaron is more abrupt and shifts to a larger electron-phonon coupling strength as electron-electron Coulomb repulsion increases.

TL;DR: In this article, the observed electron energy spectra fall into three distinct types, reflecting different correlations between the two excess electrons and ions, depending on the host clusters' structures, and experimental evidence indicates that the two extra electrons in these sodium chloride clusters could be spin paired, forming a bipolaron or a Na− anion.
Abstract: Photoelectron spectroscopy measurements of (NaCl)nNa− (n=1–13, except n=10) are reported. The observed electron energy spectra fall into three distinct types, reflecting different correlations between the two excess electrons and ions. Depending on the host clusters' structures, the experimental evidence indicates that the two excess electrons in these sodium chloride clusters could be spin paired, forming a bipolaron or a Na− anion. The two excess electrons could also be spin parallel, forming a double F-center state.
