Abstract
⺠A mobile impurity in a one-dimensional quantum liquid acquires a periodic dispersion. ⺠Under the action of a force, the impurity may perform Bloch oscillations (BO). ⺠Due to phonon coupling, the impurity exhibits uniform drift along with renormalized BO. ⺠The drift strongly depends on the temperature and impurity-liquid interactions. ⺠We predict a wide range of forces where drifted BO can be observed in current experiments.
