Abstract: | We study systems of a few charged bosons contained within a strongly anisotropic harmonic
trap. A detailed examination of the ground-state correlation properties of two-, three-,
and four-particle systems is carried out within the framework of the single-mode
approximation of the transverse components. The linear correlation entropy of the quasi-1D
systems is discussed in dependence on the confinement anisotropy and compared with a
strictly 1D limit. Only at weak interaction the correlation properties depend strongly on
the anisotropy parameter. |
