Breathing Dynamics for Systems of Interacting Particles in the Microcanonical and Canonical Descriptions
نویسندگان
چکیده
By means of a dynamical ansatz, we study the breathing dynamics in systems of trapped interacting particles in a unified context, including a wide range of power law interactions and interaction strengths, at linear and non linear levels. We present detailed numerical tests of the general theory, and, motivated by Magneto-Optical Traps modeling, we extend it to the case of space dependent friction and diffusion.

Phase Transitions in Small Systems: Microcanonical vs. Canonical Ensembles
We compare phase transition(-like) phenomena in small model systems for both microcanonical and canonical ensembles. Our model systems correspond to a few classical (non-quantum) point particles confined in a one-dimensional box and interacting via Lennard-Jones-type pair potentials. Already by means of these simple examples it can be shown that microcanonical thermodynamic functions of a small...
متن کاملDynamics of entangled quantum optical system in independent media
We study the dynamics of two three-level atoms interacting with independent bosonic Lorentzian reservoirs at zero temperature. Such systems can be created in far astronomical objects. Quantum mechanical behaviour of these particles can produce detectable effects on the spectroscopic identifications of these objects, if such behaviour remain stable during the interaction with their media. It is ...
متن کاملNonuniqueness of canonical ensemble theory arising from microcanonical basis
Given physical systems, counting rule for their statistical mechanical descriptions need not be unique, in general. It is shown that this nonuniqueness leads to the existence of various canonical ensemble theories, which equally arise from the definite microcanonical basis. Thus, the Gibbs theorem for canonical ensemble theory is not universal, and maximum entropy principle is to be appropriate...
متن کاملCondensate fluctuations of a trapped, ideal Bose gas.
For a non-self-interacting Bose gas with a fixed, large number of particles confined to a trap, as the ground-state occupation becomes macroscopic, the condensate number fluctuations remain microscopic. However, this is the only significant aspect in which the grand canonical description differs from canonical or microcanonical in the thermodynamic limit. General arguments and estimates includi...
متن کاملPost - collapse dynamics of self - gravitating Brownian particles in D dimensions
We address the post-collapse dynamics of a self-gravitating gas of Brownian particles in D dimensions, in both canonical and microcanonical ensembles. In the canonical ensemble, the post-collapse evolution is marked by the formation of a Dirac peak with increasing mass. The density profile outside the peak evolves self-similarly with decreasing central density and increasing core radius. In the...
