Linear to zigzag transition in dipolar chains — •Florian Cartarius1,2,3, Anna Minguzzi2,3, and Giovanna Morigi11Theoretische Physik, Universität des Saarlandes, 66123 Saarbrücken, Germany — 2Laboratoire de Physique et Modélisation des Milieux Condensés, Université Grenoble Alpes, F-38000 Grenoble, France — 3Laboratoire de Physique et Modélisation des Milieux Condensés, CNRS, F-38000 Grenoble, France

In very anisotropic confinement cold dipolar particles can arrange in linear chains. By relaxing the transverse confinement these chains split into a zigzag structure. We consider a chain of dipolar bosons superimposed by an optical lattice, where the particles can tunnel from one site to the next. In deep optical lattices the coupling to the axial phonons can be neglected and it is possible to describe the behaviour of the system by two coupled extended Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonians close to the transition [1]. We present the solution of this model using a path integral Monte Carlo method.
