Hydrodynamic damping in trapped Bose gases

Griffin, Wu and Stringari have derived the hydrodynamic equations of a trapped dilute Bose gas above the Bose-Einstein transition temperature. We give the extension which includes hydrodynamic damping, following the classic work of Uehling and Uhlenbeck based on the Chapman-Enskog procedure. Our final result is a closed equation for the velocity fluctuations δv which includes the hydrodynamic damping due to the shear viscosity η and the thermal conductivity κ. Following Kavoulakis, Pethick and Smith, we introduce a spatial cutoff in our linearized equations when the density is so low that the hydrodynamic description breaks down. Explicit expressions are given for η and κ, which are position-dependent through dependence on the local fugacity when one includes the effect of quantum degeneracy of the trapped gas. We also discuss a trapped Bose-condensed gas, generalizing the work of Zaremba, Griffin and Nikuni to include hydrodynamic damping due to the (non-condensate) normal fluid.Griffin, Wu and Stringari have derived the hydrodynamic equations of a trapped dilute Bose gas above the Bose-Einstein transition temperature.
