Abstract

We derive universal relations between thermodynamic quantities and the pair distribution function for bosons interacting via power-law interactions in three and two dimensions. We find beyond mean-field expressions for Tan's contact and establish new connections between the chemical potential and potential energy per particle, characteristic of systems with finite-range interactions. The obtained results are relevant for dipoles, quadrupoles, Rydberg atoms, excitons, van der Waals atoms, and other systems in the dilute limit.

Universal relations for dipolar quantum gases

Johannes Hofmann, W. Zwerger

We establish that two-dimensional dipolar quantum gases admit a universal description, i.e., their thermodynamic properties are independent of details of the interaction at short distances.The only relevant parameters are the dipole length as well as the scattering length of the combined short-range plus dipolar interaction potential.We derive adiabatic relations that link the change in the thermodynamic potentials with respect to the scattering length and the dipole length to a generalized Tan contact parameter and a new dipolar contact, which involves an integral of a short-distance regularized pair distribution function.These two quantities determine the scale anomaly in the difference between pressure and energy density and also the internal energy in the presence of a harmonic confinement.For a weak transverse confinement, configurations with attractive interactions appear, which lead to a density-wave instability beyond a critical strength of the dipolar interaction.We show that this instability essentially coincides with the onset of a roton minimum in the excitation spectrum and may be understood in terms of a quantum analog of the Hansen-Verlet criterion for freezing of a classical fluid.

Comparative study of one-dimensional Bose and Fermi gases with contact interactions from the viewpoint of universal relations for correlation functions

Yuta Sekino, Shina Tan, Yusuke Nishida

One-dimensional spinless Bose and Fermi gases with contact interactions have the close interrelation via Girardeau's Bose-Fermi mapping, leading to the correspondences in their energy spectra and thermodynamics. However, correlation functions are in general not identical between these systems. We derive in both systems the exact universal relations for correlation functions, which hold for any energy eigenstate and any statistical ensemble of the eigenstates with or without a trapping potential. These relations include the large-momentum behaviors of static structure factors and of momentum distributions as well as energy relations, which connect the sums of kinetic and interaction energies to the momentum distributions. The relations involve two- and three-body contacts, which are the integrals of local pair and triad correlations, respectively. We clarify how the relations for bosons and fermions differ and are connected with each other. In particular, we find that the three-body contact makes no contribution to the bosonic energy relation, but it plays a crucial role in the fermionic one. In addition, we compute the exact momentum distribution for any number of fermions in the unitary limit.

Dilute Bose gases interacting via power-law potentials

Ryan M. Kalas, D. Blume

Neutral atoms interact through a van der Waals potential which asymptotically falls off as ${r}^{\ensuremath{-}6}$. In ultracold gases, this interaction can be described to a good approximation by the atom-atom scattering length. However, corrections arise that depend on the characteristic length of the van der Waals potential. We parametrize these corrections by analyzing the energies of two- and few-atom systems under external harmonic confinement, obtained by numerically and analytically solving the Schr\"odinger equation. We generalize our results to particles interacting through a longer-ranged potential which asymptotically falls off as ${r}^{\ensuremath{-}4}$.

Short-range particle correlations in a dilute Bose gas

Alexander Yu. Cherny, Arkady A Shanenko

The thermodynamics of a homogeneous dilute Bose gas with an arbitrarily strong repulsion between particles is investigated on the basis of the exact relation connecting the pair correlation function with the in-medium pair wave functions and occupation numbers. It is shown that the effective-interaction scheme, which is reduced to the Bogoliubov model with the effective pairwise potential, is not acceptable for investigating the short-range particle correlations in a dilute strongly interacting Bose gas. In contrast to this scheme, our model is thermodynamically consistent and free of the ultraviolet divergences due to accurate treatment of the short-range boson correlations. An equation for the in-medium scattering amplitude is derived that makes it possible to find the in-medium renormalization for the pair wave functions at short boson separations. Low-density expansions for the main thermodynamic quantities are reinvestigated on the basis of this equation. In addition, the expansions are found for the interaction and kinetic energies per particle. It is demonstrated that for a many-boson system of hard spheres the interaction energy is equal to zero for any boson density. The exact relationship between the chemical potential and in-medium pair wave functions is also established.

Bose-Einstein Condensation and Superfluidity in 3D and 2D bosons

Andrea Tononi

The refinement and the combination of laser cooling and evaporative cooling in dilute systems of alkali atoms lead to the achievement of Bose-Einstein condensation in 1995. Nowadays there is a fruitful interplay between theoretical and experimental results: in this context, the study of uniform Bose gases plays an important role in the comprehension of the static and dynamic properties of a bosonic system. Here we use quantum field theory, within the approach of functional integration, to study an homogeneous system of weakly-interacting bosonic cold atoms. After characterizing their thermodynamical properties, we derive - at a gaussian level - the number density and the superfluid density in three and in two spatial dimensions, expressed as functions of the condensate density and the temperature. Since the equations derived are valid for a generic interaction potential, we implement these formulas for bosons with a zero-range interaction, providing also an extension of these results with the inclusion of a finite-range interaction.

Universal Tan relations for quantum gases in one dimension

Ovidiu I. Pâţu, Andreas Klümper

We investigate universal properties of one-dimensional multicomponent systems composed of fermions, bosons, or an arbitrary mixture, with contact interactions and subjected to an external potential. The masses and the coupling strengths between different types of particles are allowed to be different and we also take into account the presence of an arbitrary magnetic field. We show that the momentum distribution of these systems exhibits a universal ${n}_{\ensuremath{\sigma}}(k)\ensuremath{\sim}{C}_{\ensuremath{\sigma}}/{k}^{4}$ decay with ${C}_{\ensuremath{\sigma}}$ being the contact of species $\ensuremath{\sigma}$ which can be computed from the derivatives of an appropriate thermodynamic potential with respect to the scattering lengths. In the case of integrable fermionic systems, we argue that at fixed density and repulsive interactions the total contact reaches its maximum in the balanced system and monotonically decreases to zero as we increase the magnetic field. The converse effect is present in integrable bosonic systems: the contact is largest in the fully polarized state and reaches its minimum when all states are equally populated. We obtain short distance expansions for the Green's function and pair distribution function and show that the coefficients of these expansions can be expressed in terms of the density, kinetic energy, and contact. In addition, we derive universal thermodynamic identities relating the total energy of the system, pressure, trapping energy, and contact. Our results are valid at zero and finite temperature for homogeneous or trapped systems and for few-body or many-body states.
