Abstract
Various ground state properties such as chemical potential, differential and total energy per particle etc. of Bose-Einstein condensate of 10000 85 Rb atoms with varying repulsive self-interaction energy have been reported considering not only two-body interaction but also including the higher order terms of the low-density energy expansion of homogeneous Bose gas in the Ginzburg, Pitaevskii and Gross (GPG) equation. These include hard-core approximation of the bosons neglected earlier and the three-body interaction terms. The study is more general as it includes the terms beyond logarithm in energy density expansion. It is also shown that such a consideration does not violate the lower bound predicted earlier in which the 'constant' beyond logarithm term in the three-body interaction was neglected.
