A continuous unitary transformation is used to map this model onto an effective model conserving the number of elementary excitations. We obtain quantitative results for the kinetics and for the spectral weights of the low-energy excitations for a broad range of parameters in the insulating phase. By these results, recent Bragg spectroscopy experiments are explained. Evidence for a significant temperature of the order of the microscopic energy scales is found.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-09-07T10:10:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "one-dimensional bosonic mott insulators", "temperature", "insulating phase", "bragg spectroscopy experiments", "microscopic energy scales" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
