Transition temperature of the homogeneous and dilute Bose gas in D-dimensions

Abstract

The phase transition temperature of the homogeneous and dilute Bose gas in D-dimensions ($2 \le D \le 3$) is calculated by a mean field-based statistical method. The shift of the phase transition temperature is written up to the leading order as $ΔT_c/T_c^0 = c \gam^{\al}$, where $\gam=n^{1/3}a$. We derived Huang's result of the phase transition temperature in the generalized dimensions. We show that $ c(D)$ is positive and $\al(D)=2(D/2-1)^2$ in the short-wavelength range. The origin of the difference between $\al=1/2$ and $\al=1$ at D=3 is discussed. The $T_c$ at D=2 is calculated in the same scheme. The result is compared with Fisher and Hohenberg's KT temperature.

Transition temperature for weakly interacting homogeneous Bose gases

F. Cruz, Marcus Benghi Pinto, Rudnei O. Ramos

We apply the nonperturbative optimized linear $\ensuremath{\delta}$ expansion method to the $O(N)$ scalar field model in three dimensions to determine the transition temperature of a dilute homogeneous Bose gas. Our results show that the shift of the transition temperature $\ensuremath{\Delta}{T}_{c}{/T}_{c}$ of the interacting model, compared with the ideal-gas transition temperature, really behaves as $\ensuremath{\gamma}{\mathrm{an}}^{1/3}$ where a is the s-wave scattering length and n is the number density. For $N=2$ our calculations yield the value $\ensuremath{\gamma}=3.059.$

BEC Transition Temperature of a Dilute Homogeneous Imperfect Bose Gas

Peter B. Arnold, Guy D. Moore

The leading-order effect of interactions on a homogeneous Bose gas is theoretically predicted to shift the critical temperature by an amount $\ensuremath{\Delta}{T}_{c}\ensuremath{\simeq}{\mathrm{ca}}_{\mathrm{sc}}{n}^{1/3}{T}_{0}$ from the ideal gas result ${T}_{0}$, where ${a}_{\mathrm{sc}}$ is the scattering length, $n$ is the density, and $c$ is a pure number. There have been several different theoretical estimates for $c$. We claim to settle the issue by measuring the numerical coefficient in a lattice simulation of O(2) ${\ensuremath{\varphi}}^{4}$ field theory in three dimensions---an effective theory which, as observed previously in the literature, can be systematically matched to the dilute Bose gas problem to reproduce nonuniversal quantities such as the critical temperature. We find $c\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}1.32\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02$.

Higher-order evaluation of the critical temperature for interacting homogeneous dilute Bose gases

We use the nonperturbative linear $\ensuremath{\delta}$ expansion method to evaluate analytically the coefficients ${c}_{1}$ and ${c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}$ that appear in the expansion for the transition temperature for a dilute, homogeneous, three-dimensional Bose gas given by ${T}_{c}{=T}_{0}({1+c}_{1}{\mathrm{an}}^{1/3}+[{c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{'}}\mathrm{ln}{(an}^{1/3}{)+c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}]{a}^{2}{n}^{2/3}{+O(a}^{3}n)),$ where ${T}_{0}$ is the result for an ideal gas, a is the s-wave scattering length, and n is the number density. In a previous work the same method has been used to evaluate ${c}_{1}$ to order ${\ensuremath{\delta}}^{2}$ with the result ${c}_{1}=3.06.$ Here, we push the calculation to the next two orders obtaining ${c}_{1}=2.45$ at order ${\ensuremath{\delta}}^{3}$ and ${c}_{1}=1.48$ at order ${\ensuremath{\delta}}^{4}.$ Analyzing the topology of the graphs involved we discuss how our results relate to other nonperturbative analytical methods such as the self-consistent resummation and the $1/N$ approximations. At the same orders we obtain ${c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}=101.4,$ ${c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}=98.2,$ and ${c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}=82.9.$ Our analytical results seem to support the recent Monte Carlo estimates ${c}_{1}=1.32\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02$ and ${c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}=75.7\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.4.$

Bose–Einstein transition temperature in a dilute repulsive gas

Markus Holzmann, Jean-Noël Fuchs, Gordon Baym +2 more

We discuss certain specific features of the calculation of the critical temperature of a dilute repulsive Bose gas. Interactions modify the critical temperature in two different ways. First, for gases in traps, temperature shifts are introduced by a change of the density profile, arising itself from a modification of the equation of state of the gas (reduced compressibility); these shifts can be calculated simply within mean field theory. Second, even in the absence of a trapping potential (homogeneous gas in a box), temperature shifts are introduced by the interactions; they arise from the correlations introduced in the gas, and thus lie inherently beyond mean field theory – in fact, their evaluation requires more elaborate, non-perturbative, calculations. One illustration of this non-perturbative character is provided by the solution of self-consistent equations, which relate together non-linearly the various energy shifts of the single particle levels k . These equations predict that repulsive interactions shift the critical temperature (at constant density) by an amount which is positive, and simply proportional to the scattering length a ; nevertheless, the numerical coefficient is difficult to compute. Physically, the increase of the temperature can be interpreted in terms of the reduced density fluctuations introduced by the repulsive interactions, which facilitate the propagation of large exchange cycles across the sample.

Discontinuity in the specific heat of a weakly interacting Bose gas

Sanghoon Kim

We produce the discontinuity in the specific heat of a homogeneous, dilute, and weakly interacting Bose gas in a short-wavelength range with a simple statistical method. The magnitude of the discontinuity at the phase transition temperature is obtained as a function of the density and scattering length of the Bose particles.

Tc for homogeneous dilute Bose gases: A second-order result

Peter B. Arnold, Guy D. Moore, Boris Tomášik

The transition temperature for a dilute, homogeneous, three-dimensional Bose gas has the expansion ${T}_{\mathrm{c}}{=T}_{0}{{1+c}_{1}{\mathrm{an}}^{1/3}+[{c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{'}}\mathrm{ln}{(an}^{1/3}{)+c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}]{a}^{2}{n}^{2/3}{+O(a}^{3}n)},$ where a is the scattering length, n the number density, and ${T}_{0}$ the ideal gas result. The first-order coefficient ${c}_{1}$ depends on nonperturbative physics. In this paper, we show that the coefficient ${c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ may be computed perturbatively. We also show that the remaining second-order coefficient ${c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}$ depends on non-perturbative physics but may be related, by a perturbative calculation, to quantities that have previously been measured using lattice simulations of three-dimensional $O(2)$ scalar field theory. Making use of those simulation results, we find ${T}_{\mathrm{c}}\ensuremath{\simeq}{T}_{0}{1+(1.32\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02){\mathrm{an}}^{1/3}+[19.7518\mathrm{ln}{(an}^{1/3})+(75.7\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.4)]{a}^{2}{n}^{2/3}{+O(a}^{3}n)}.$
