In the Bose-Einstein condensation of interacting atoms or molecules such as Rb, Na and Li, the theoretical understanding of the transition temperature is not always obvious due to the interactions or zero point energy which cannot be exactly taken into account. The S-wave collision model fails sometimes to account for the condensation temperatures. In this work, we look at the problem within th...

We calculate a grand partition function of the attractive Bose gas in the infinite space within some approximations. Using the idea of the Yang-Lee zeros, it is proved that the gas-liquid condensation occurs before the conventional condition of the Bose-Einstein condensation is satisfied. Further, it is pointed out that Bosons with a zero momentum play a role of a trigger to this gas-liquid con...

We reconcile a long-standing controversy regarding the transition temperature of the Bose-Einstein condensation in a dilute interacting Bose gas, by showing that there is a crossover between ideal gas and interacting gas. The former corresponds to a Knudsen (or collisionless) regime, in which the mean-free-path is much larger than the system dimension, while the latter corresponds to the opposi...

In this paper, a solid trap/thermal desorption-based odorant gas condensation system has been designed and implemented for measuring low concentration odorant gas. The technique was successfully applied to a medical electronic nose system. The developed system consists of a flow control unit, a temperature control unit and a sorbent tube. The theoretical analysis and experimental results indica...

Chemistry resulting in the formation of large carbon-bearing molecules and dust in the interior of an expanding supernova was explored, and the equations governing their abundances were solved numerically. Carbon dust condenses from initially gaseous carbon and oxygen atoms because energetic electrons produced by radioactivity in the supernova cause dissociation of the carbon monoxide molecules...

Millimeter continuum and spectral line observations with 10", 30", and 60" resolution are used to characterize the structure and chemistry of the gas around the young, embedded star, IRAS 05338-0624. On arcminute scales, emission from dense gas tracers outline an isolated condensation centered on the IRAS source position. The condensation is characterized by a size of ~60", a density of 2 x 105...

The Bose-Einstein condensation of a dilute gas of rubidium-87 atoms was achieved by cooling a small number of atoms in a magnetic trap. The effective potential of the trap is to lowest order harmonic and under these conditions we estimate the critical temperature and the heat capacity of an ideal gas of Bose particles. Previously this has been estimated within the semiclassical approximation. H...

Due to the observation of Bose-Einstein condensation in dilute atomic 87Rb and 23Na vapors last year, there is currently a great interest in the properties of a degenerate Bose gas. One aspect that is not yet understood is the effect of the interatomic interactions on the critical temperature of the phase transition. We present here a renormalization group study of the weakly-interacting Bose g...

We study condensation of trapped bosons in the limit when the number of particles tends to infinity. For the noninteracting gas we prove that there is no phase transition in any dimension, but in any dimension, at any temperature the system is 100% condensated into the oneparticle ground state. In the case of an interacting gas we show that for a family of suitably scaled pair interactions, the...
