Description
We investigate a dilute mixture of bosons and spin-polarized fermions in one-dimension. With an attractive Bose-Fermi scattering length the ground-state is a self-bound droplet, i.e. a Bose-Fermi bright soliton where the Bose and Fermi clouds are superimposed. We find that the quantum fluctuations stabilize the Bose-Fermi soliton such that the one-dimensional bright soliton exists for any finite attractive Bose-Fermi scattering length. We study density profile and collective excitations of the atomic bright soliton showing that they depend on the bosonic regime involved: mean-field or Tonks-Girardeau.
