Dilute Bose gas: short-range particle correlations and ultraviolet divergence

The modified Bogoliubov model where the primordial interaction is replaced by the t matrix is reinvestigated. It is shown to provide a negative value of the kinetic energy for a strongly interacting dilute Bose gas, contrary to the original Bogoliubov model. To clear up the origin of this failure, the correct values of the kinetic and interaction energies of a dilute Bose gas are calculated. It is demonstrated that both the problem of the negative kinetic energy and the ultraviolet divergence, dating back to the well-known paper of Lee, Yang and Huang, is connected with an inadequate picture of the short-range boson correlations. These correlations are reconsidered within the thermodynamically consistent model proposed earlier by the present authors. Found results are in absolute agreement with the data of the Monte-Carlo calculations for the hard-sphere Bose gas. Received 10 February 2000 and Received in final form 28 November 2000

Spin excitons — a new mechanism of superconducting pairing in copper oxides

The Fermi and Bose quasiparticle spectrum in copper oxides is studied in a many-band p-d model taking account of the strong electronic correlations. It is shown that hole-doped systems possess a Bose mode — a spin exciton — which is associated with the singlet-triplet excitation of the two-hole ground-state term of CuO₄ clusters. Intercluster hopping leads to fermion-boson interaction with a spin exciton as the intermediate boson. Such a mechanism does not exist for n-type systems. Pis'ma Zh. éksp. Teor.

On the exact mean-field description of continuous quantum systems in equilibrium

The thermodynamic limit of free energy density is investigated for quantum systems of n particles obeying Boltzmann, Fermi and Bose statistics, interacting via spin-independent 2-body bounded separable potentials and confined to a bounded region Λ ? R^v. The technique used exploits the Feynman-Kac theorem in finite volume and the saddle-point method of Tindemans and Capel. It is shown that the limiting free energy density of such systems is equal to that of a system of noninteracting particles subject to a mean field which is equal to the averaged 2-body interaction. The equations for the mean field of n particles obeying Boltzmann, Fermi or Bose statistics represent self-consistent field problems and their forms comply with the well-known theorems on mean occupation numbers of single-particle eigenstates of ideal quantum gases at inverse temperature β.     

Chaotic matter shock wave of an open system

We investigate a one-dimensional open Bose-Einstein condensate with attractive interaction,by considering the effect of feeding from nonequilibrium thermal cloud and applying the time-periodic inverted-harmonic potential.Using the direct perturbation method and the exact shock wave solution of the stationary Gross-Pitaevskii equation,we obtain the chaotic perturbed solution and the Melnikov chaotic regions.Based on the analytical and the numerical methods,the influence of the feeding strength on the chaotic motion is revealed.It is shown that the chaotic regions could be enlarged by reducing the feeding strength and the increase of feeding strength plays a role in suppressing chaos.In the case of "nonpropagated" shock wave with fixed boundary,the number of condensed atoms increases faster as the feeding strength increases.However,for the free boundary the metastable shock wave with fixed front density oscillates its front position and atomic number aperiodically,and their amplitudes decay with the increase of the feeding strength.     

Effects of Thermally Induced Roton-Like Excitation on the Superfluid Density of a Quasi-2D Dipolar Bose Condensed Gas

Using the Green's function approach, the density–density correlation function and the dielectric function in the random-phase approximation for a quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) dipolar Bose gas are derived. From the pole of the density correlation function, by considering thermally induced roton-like excitations, the excitation spectrum of the system is calculated. It is shown that the position and depth of the roton minimum of the excitation spectrum are tunable by changing the temperature. To show how the position of the roton minimum influences the phenomenon of superfluidity, the superfluid density of the system is obtained and it is shown that the interplay of the thermal rotonization, contact and dipole–dipole interaction (DDI) can affect the superfluid fraction of a quasi-2D Bose gas. It is found that contact, DDI interactions, and thermally induced rotons enhance the fluctuations and reduce the superfluid density. In the absence of DDI and thermally induced rotons, the usual T³ dependence of superfluid density in 2D is obtained and the correction T⁴ term arises from DDI. It is shown that if the roton minimum is close to zero, the thermally induced rotons change the linear temperature dependence of the superfluid fraction, leading to a transition to nontrivial supersolid phase.     

The Equilibrium States for a Model with Two Kinds of Bose Condensation

We study the equilibrium Gibbs states for a Boson gas model, defined by Bru and Zagrebnov, which has two phase transitions of the Bose condensation type. The two phase transitions correspond to two distinct mechanisms by which these condensations can occur. The first (non-conventional) Bose condensation is mediated by a zero-mode interaction term in the Hamiltonian. The second is a transition due to saturation quite similar to the conventional Bose–Einstein (BE) condensation in the ideal Bose gas. Due to repulsive interaction in non-zero modes the model manifests a generalized type III; i.e., non-extensive BE condensation. Our main result is that, as in the ideal Bose gas, the conventional condensation is accompanied by a loss of strong equivalence of the canonical and grand canonical ensembles whereas the non-conventional one, due to the interaction, does not break the equivalence of ensembles, at least not on the level of the gauge invariant states. It is also interesting to note that the type of (generalized) condensate, I, II, or III (in the terminology of van den Berg, Lewis, and Pulé), has no effect on the equivalence of ensembles. These results are proved by computing the generating functional of the cyclic representation of the Canonical Commutation Relation (CCR) for the corresponding equilibrium Gibbs states.     

Mechanism of the collapse of a low-density Bose gas with strong attraction

It is shown that the Bose condensate of a low-density Bose gas whose interparticle interaction potential possesses a bound state is unstable. The modes with large momenta, of the order of the inverse radius of the bound state, are unstable. Their fluctuations grow exponentially in time. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor.

Lasing without inversion due to cooling subsystem

The new possibility of inversionless lasing is discussed. We have considered the resonant interaction of a two-level system (TLS) with photons and the adiabatic interaction with an ensemble of Bose particles. It is found out that a TLS with equally populated energy levels amplifies the coherent light with Stokes-shifted frequency. This becomes possible as photon emission is accompanied by Bose particles excitation. The energy flow from the TLS to the photon subsystem is realized due to the Bose subsystem being at finite temperature and playing the cooler role. The advantage of this new lasing principle is discussed. It is shown that lasing conditions strongly differ from conventional ones. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

On Condensations in the Bogoliubov Weakly Imperfect Bose Gas

We show that condensation in the Bogoliubov weakly imperfect Bose gas (WIBG) may appear in two stages. If interaction is such that the pressure of the WIBG does not coincide with the pressure of the perfect Bose gas (PBG), then the WIBG may manifest two kinds of condensations: nonconventional Bose condensation in zero mode, due to the interaction (the first stage), and conventional (generalized) Bose–Einstein condensation in modes next to the zero mode due to the particle density saturation (the second stage). Otherwise the WIBG manifests only the latter kind of condensation.     

Crossover from BCS-superconductivity to Bose-condensation

Starting from a model of free Fermions in two dimensions with an arbitrary strong effective interaction, we derive a Ginzburg-Landau theory describing the crossover from BCS-superconductivity to Bose-condensation. We find a smooth crossover from the standard BCS-limit to a Gross-Pitaevski type equation for the order parameter in a Bose superfluid. The mean field transition temperature exhibits a maximum at a coupling strength, where the behaviour crosses over from BCS to Bose like with corresponding values of 2 Δ₀/T_c ≈ 5 which are characteristic for high T_c superconductors.     

Fluctuations in the Bose Gas with Attractive Boundary Conditions

In this paper limiting distribution functions of field and density fluctuations are explicitly and rigorously computed for the different phases of the Bose gas. Several Gaussian and non-Gaussian distribution functions are obtained and the dependence on boundary conditions is explicitly derived. The model under consideration is the free Bose gas subjected to attractive boundary conditions, such boundary conditions yield a gap in the spectrum. The presence of a spectral gap and the method of the coupled thermodynamic limits are the new aspects of this work, leading to new scaling exponents and new fluctuation distribution functions.     

Determinism in Free Bosons

It is shown how to map the quantum states of a system of free Bose particles one-to-one onto the states of a completely deterministic model. It is a classical field theory with a large (global) gauge group.     

On the Bose gas with local mean-field interaction

A Bose gas model is considered where the interaction term is proportional to the integral over the square of the local particle density. This model exhibits a phase transition with the same critical behavior as the usual mean-field (imperfect) Bose gas, but only generalized condensation may occur, due to boundary conditions.     

Lifetime of quasiparticles in a hybrid electron-exciton system

The lifetimes (damping) of one-body and collective excitations in a hybrid system consisting of spatially separated layers of a two-dimensional electron gas and a gas of indirect excitons have been calculated at zero temperature in the presence of the Bose-Einstein condensate of excitons. It has been shown that the electron-exciton interaction leads to a considerable shortening of the lifetime of electrons as compared to the electron-electron interaction and to the appearance of a nonzero (linear in the wave vector) damping of plasmons. The interaction of the exciton Bose gas with the electron layer induces damping of Bogoliubov phonons in the exciton Bose gas, which is, however, much lower than their intrinsic (Belyaev) damping.     

High temperature superconductivity; The spin polaron theory

An outline is given of one of the many models which have been advanced to explain high temperature superconductivity in the quasi-two-dimensional oxides. In these the compensation ensures that there are free positive holes, formed in the oxygen 2p states, which form ‘spin polarons’ by orienting neighbouring spins in Cu 3d⁹ ions. Two spin polarons then combine to form a spinless pair, which obeys Einstein–Bose statistics. It is shown that a degenerate gas of such entities is a superconductor. If this is a correct model, such pairs (bosons) must exist above the critical temperature (T _c). Particular attention is given to the properties of these materials at temperatures above T _c. An unresolved problem is whether all, or only some, of the carriers form bosons.     

Josephson junction of two-species Bose-Einstein condensates in a high-finesse optical cavity

The mean-field dynamics of undistinguishable two-species Bose Josephson junction coupled to a single mode high-finesse optical cavity is investigated.From the Hamiltonian,the phase portrait and the stationary points are given.It is shown that the role of the interspecies interaction equals the intraspecies interaction under suitable conditions.As the interspecies interaction increases,the trapped atoms will start tunneling between the two wells unnaturally for some special cases.     

Quantum phase diagram for homogeneous Bose‐Einstein condensate

We calculate the quantum phase transition for a homogeneous Bose gas in the plane of s‐wave scattering length a_s and temperature T. This is done by improving a one‐loop result near the interaction‐free Bose‐Einstein critical temperature T_c⁽⁰⁾ with the help of recent high‐loop results on the shift of the critical temperature due to a weak atomic repulsion based on variational perturbation theory. The quantum phase diagram shows a nose above T_c⁽⁰⁾, so that we predict the existence of a reentrant transition above T_c⁽⁰⁾, where an increasing repulsion leads to the formation of a condensate.     

A unified grand canonical description of the nonextensive thermostatistics of the quantum gases: Fractal and fractional approach

In this paper, the particles of quantum gases, that is, bosons and fermions are regarded as g-ons which obey fractional exclusion statistics. With this point of departure the thermostatistical relations concerning the Bose and Fermi systems are unified under the g-on formulation where a fractal approach is adopted. The fractal inspired entropy, the partition function, distribution function, the thermodynamics potential and the total number of g-ons have been found for a grand canonical g-on system. It is shown that from the g-on formulation; by a suitable choice of the parameters of the nonextensivity q, the parameter of the fractional exclusion statistics g, nonextensive Tsallis as well as extensive (q=1) standard thermostatistical relations of the Bose and Fermi systems are recovered.

On the Nature of Bose-Einstein Condensation in Disordered Systems

We study the perfect Bose gas in random external potentials and show that there is generalized Bose-Einstein condensation in the random eigenstates if and only if the same occurs in the one-particle kinetic-energy eigenstates, which corresponds to the generalized condensation of the free Bose gas. Moreover, we prove that the amounts of both condensate densities are equal. Our method is based on the derivation of an explicit formula for the occupation measure in the one-body kinetic-energy eigenstates which describes the repartition of particles among these non-random states. This technique can be adapted to re-examine the properties of the perfect Bose gas in the presence of weak (scaled) non-random potentials, for which we establish similar results. In addition some of our results can be applied to models with diagonal interactions, that is, models which conserve the occupation density in each single particle eigenstate.
