Critical Temperature of a Trapped Interacting Bose Gas in the Local Density Approximation
The Bose gas in an external potential is studied by means of the local density approximation. An analytical result is derived for the dependence of the critical temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation on the mutual interaction in a generic power-law potential. PACS numbers: 03.75.Fi, 32.80.Pj In an ideal Bose-Einstein gas, the zero momentum state can become macroscopically occupied, and the s...
متن کاملCritical temperature of a trapped, weakly interacting Bose gas.
We report on measurements of the critical temperature of a harmonically trapped, weakly interacting Bose gas as a function of atom number. Our results exclude ideal-gas behavior by more than two standard deviations, and agree quantitatively with mean-field theory. At our level of sensitivity, we find no additional shift due to critical fluctuations. In the course of this measurement, the onset ...
متن کاملThermodynamics of an interacting trapped Bose - Einstein gas in the classical field approximation
We present a convenient technique describing the condensate in dynamical equilibrium with the thermal cloud, at temperatures close to the critical one. We show that the whole isolated system may be viewed as a single classical field undergoing nonlinear dynamics leading to a steady state. In our procedure it is the observation process and the finite detection time that allow for splitting the s...
متن کاملCritical temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation for weakly interacting bose gas in a potential trap
The critical temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation at minimum momentum state for weakly interacting Bose gases in a power-law potential and the deviation of the critical temperature from ideal bose gas are studied. The effect of interaction on the critical temperature is ascribed to the ratiao α/λc, where α is the scattering length for s wave and λc is de Broglie wavelength at critical temp...
متن کاملCritical behavior of a trapped interacting Bose gas.
The phase transition of Bose-Einstein condensation was studied in the critical regime, where fluctuations extend far beyond the length scale of thermal de Broglie waves. We used matter-wave interference to measure the correlation length of these critical fluctuations as a function of temperature. Observations of the diverging behavior of the correlation length above the critical temperature ena...
