Low dimensions + large scattering length

1D Hamiltonian if g 1D large and negative (na 1D <<1) metastable gas-like state of hard-rods of size a 1D at na 1D  0.35 the inverse compressibility vanishes gas-like state rapidly disappears forming clusters g 1D >0 Lieb-Liniger Hamiltonian (1963) g 1D <0 ground-state is a cluster state (McGuire 1964) Olshanii (1998)
