Theory of Interacting Quantum Gases

چکیده
We present a unified picture of the interaction effects in dilute atomic quantum gases. We consider fermionic as well as bosonic gases and, in particular, discuss for both forms of statistics the fundamental differences between a gas with effectively repulsive and a gas with effectively attractive inter atomic interactions, i.e., between a gas with either a positive or a negative scattering length.

متن کاملUniversality in Strongly Interacting Fermi Gases
The theory of strongly interacting fermions is of great interest. Interacting fermions are involved in some of the most important unanswered questions in condensed matter physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics and cosmology. Though weakly-interacting fermions are well understood, new approaches are required to treat strong interactions. In these cases, one encounters a “strongly correlated” pic...
متن کاملAtomism and Quantization∗
Within the framework of the theory of interacting classical and quantum gases it is shown that the atomistic constitution of gases can be understood as a consequence of (second) quantization of a continuum theory of gases. In this note this is explained in some detail for the theory of non-relativistic interacting Bose gases, which can be viewed as the second quantization of a continuum theory ...

متن کاملNot to Normal Order – Notes on the Kinetic Limit for Weakly Interacting Quantum Fluids
The derivation of the Nordheim-Boltzmann transport equation for weakly interacting quantum fluids is a longstanding problem in mathematical physics. Inspired by the method developed to handle classical dilute gases, a conventional approach is the use of the BBGKY hierarchy for the time-dependent reduced density matrices. In contrast, our contribution is motivated by the kinetic theory of the we...
متن کاملThermodynamic properties and thermometry of 1D Bose gases
The one-dimensional (1D) Bose gas model of particles interacting via a repulsive delta-function potential is a remarkable system for extending our understanding of the physics of interacting quantum many-body systems. On the one hand, the model is exactly solvable in quantum many-body theory. On the other hand, it is now experimentally realizable with ultra-cold alkali atoms in highly anisotrop...
