We consider a non-linear Hartree energy for bosonic particles in a symmetric double-well potential. In the limit where the wells are far apart and the potential barrier is high, we prove that the ground state and first excited state are given to leading order by an even, respectively odd, superposition of ground states in single wells. The corresponding energies are separated by a small tunneling term that we evaluate precisely.

Abstract
We consider a non-linear Hartree energy for bosonic particles in a symmetric double-well potential. In the limit where the wells are far apart and the potential barrier is high, we prove that the ground state and first excited state are given to leading order by an even, respectively odd, superposition of ground states in single wells. The corresponding energies are separated by a small tunneling term that we evaluate precisely.File in questo prodotto:
