contents We explore effective approaches for describing the dynamics of induced interactions amongst two non-interacting distinguishable impurities - Bose polarons - when their couplings to the host species are switched on. First, we evaluate the time-dependent characteristics of each polaron through reduced single-particle models. Their validity is ultimately judged by comparing to observables obtained within a many-body variational approach. We argue that utilizing a time-dependent optimization process with the effective mass and frequency being fitting parameters leads to an accurate matching on the level of one-body observables with the prediction of the many-body method. Next, we construct two-body effective models, which besides the effective parameters of the single polaron, include a contact interaction potential modelling the induced interactions. It is shown that the instantaneous coupling strength obtained with a time-dependent optimization process allows for an accurate description of the impurities two-body correlation dynamics when compared to the many-body calculations. In this sense, it is possible to describe the dynamical crossover from correlated to anti-correlated impurity patterns related to the transition from attractive to repulsive induced interactions. Our results should facilitate the description of strongly particle-imbalanced mixtures via reduced models and hence their experimental understanding.
