Pairing and Mott instabilities of 1D and quasi-1D dipolar gases #
Recent developments in cooling and controlling 
ultracold gases of magnetic atoms and polar molecules open a 
new perspective on many-body physics of ultracold gases, which 
was previously strongly related to contact interactions. We 
will present a theoretical analysis of bosonic and fermionic 
gases confined in 1D and quasi-1D geometries, combining 
analytical approaches based on the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid 
formalism with numerical DMRG calculations. Several phenomena 
are investigated, from the formation of a staircase of 
insulating phases to the emergence of exotic pairing 
instabilities which are stable even in standard experimental 
setups.
