Abstract
Apart form their possible technological applications, the adsorption of qua ntum liquids inside carbon nanotubes allows for an experimental realization of quasi-one dimensional systems. We present a comparison between energeti c and structural properties of He-4 and H-2 inside a (5,5) nanotube and in a pure 1D arrangement based in diffusion Monte Carlo calculations.
