Cooling atoms to ultracold temperatures, where quantum effects dominante, has become a standard approach in experimental quantum physics. An intriguing focus of research lies on impurity systems, aiming on elucidating microscopic properties of thermalization or quasi-particle formation in quantum systems. Recent experiments(1,2) shed light on the bose polaron and the interaction between impurities and a bose gas.    We thoretically model the thermalization dynamics of a single impurity immersed into a BEC using Bogoliubov approximation. From the master equation, we derive the impurity’s momentum resolved scattering and numerically simulate the ensuing cooling dynamics. We find a separation of relaxation time scales originating from the superfluid nature of the condensate, indicating a prethermalized state. Furthermore we discuss the possibuility to exploit the emerging non-thermal impurity states to realize low-entropy quantum states by applying external forces.
