Thermodynamic properties of charged ideal spin-1 bosons in a trap under a magnetic field

Abstract

Thermodynamics of trapped charged ideal spin-1 bosons confined in a magnetic field are investigated within semi-classical approximation and truncated-summation approach. It is shown that the critical temperature increases slightly at the first, and then decreases slowly with increasing external magnetic field. Charged spin-1 Bose gases present a crossover from diamagnetism to paramagnetism as the spin factor increases. Charged spin-1 Bose gases exhibit distinct thermodynamic behaviors from the spinless case.

Thermodynamics of Charged Ideal Bose Gases in a Trap under a Magnetic Field

Jing-Han Fan, Qiang Gu, Wei Guo

We investigate thermodynamic properties of the rotating Bose gas in a trap, taking the charged ideal Bose gas in a magnetic field as an example. The system is equivalent to a neutral gas in a synthetic magnetic field. It is indicated that the Bose—Einstein condensation temperature is irrelevant to the magnetic field, conflicting with established intuition that the critical temperature decreases with the field increasing. The specific heat and Landau diamagnetization also exhibit intriguing behaviors.

Magnetic properties of charged spin-1 Bose gases with ferromagnetic coupling

Jihong Qin, Xiaoling Jian, Qiang Gu

The magnetic properties of a charged spin-1 Bose gas with ferromagnetic interactions are investigated within mean-field theory. It is shown that a competition between paramagnetism, diamagnetism and ferromagnetism exists in this system. It is shown that diamagnetism, being concerned with spontaneous magnetization, cannot exceed ferromagnetism in a very weak magnetic field. The critical value of reduced ferromagnetic coupling of the paramagnetic phase to ferromagnetic phase transition I[combining overline](c) increases with increasing temperature. The Landé-factor g is introduced to describe the strength of the paramagnetic effect which comes from the spin degree of freedom. The magnetization density M[combining overline] increases monotonically with g for fixed reduced ferromagnetic coupling I[combining overline] as I[combining overline] > I[combining overline](c). In a weak magnetic field, ferromagnetism makes an immense contribution to the magnetization density. On the other hand, at a high magnetic field, the diamagnetism tends to saturate. Evidence for condensation can be seen in the magnetization density at a weak magnetic field.

Quantum corrections to the thermodynamic potential of trapped bosons

Subhasis Sinha

We calculate the quantum corrections of the thermodynamic quantities of a system of confined bosons at finite temperature. Systematically quantum corrections are written in a series of $\ensuremath{\Elzxh},$ which is convergent when $\mathrm{kT}$ is much larger than the spacing between energy levels of the system. We apply this method to the different physical systems. First we calculate the thermodynamic potential of spin-1 bosons confined in a general power-law potential, and calculate the paramagnetic susceptibility of the gas including the quantum corrections. Local-density approximation for charged bosons in the weak magnetic field is improved by the semiclassical expansion. Diamagnetic susceptibility of a system of confined charged bosons is calculated using this method. Finally we apply this method to calculate analytically the thermodynamic potential of a weakly interacting Bose-gas confined in at three-dimensional harmonic-oscillator potential. For a large number of particles, quantum corrections become small, and contribute to the finite-size corrections to scaling.

Effects of a finite number of particles on the thermodynamic properties of a harmonically trapped ideal charged Bose gas in a constant magnetic field

Duan-Liang Xiao, Meng-Yun Lai, Xiao‐Yin Pan

We investigate the thermodynamic properties of an ideal charged Bose gas confined in an anisotropic harmonic potential and a constant magnetic field. Using an accurate density of states, we calculate analytically the thermodynamic potential and consequently various intriguing thermodynamic properties, including the Bose–Einstein transition temperature, the specific heat, magnetization, and the corrections to these quantities due to the finite number of particles are also given explicitly. In contrast to the infinite number of particles scenarios, we show that those thermodynamic properties, particularly the Bose–Einstein transition temperature depends upon the strength of the magnetic field due to the finiteness of the particle numbers, and the collective effects of a finite number of particles become larger when the particle number decreases. Moreover, the magnetization varies with the temperature due to the finiteness of the particle number while it keeps invariant in the thermodynamic limit N → ∞ .

Diamagnetism versus paramagnetism in charged spin-1 Bose gases

Xiaoling Jian, Jihong Qin, Qiang Gu

It has been suggested that either the diamagnetism or paramagnetism of Bose gases, due to the charge or spin degrees of freedom respectively, appears solely to be extraordinarily strong. We investigate the magnetic properties of charged spin-1 Bose gases in an external magnetic field, focusing on the competition between the diamagnetism and paramagnetism, using the Lande-factor g of particles to evaluate the strength of the paramagnetic effect. We propose that a gas with g < 1/√8 exhibits diamagnetism at all temperatures, while a gas with g > 1/2 always exhibits paramagnetism. Moreover, a gas with the Lande-factor in between shows a shift from paramagnetism to diamagnetism as the temperature decreases. The paramagnetic and diamagnetic contributions to the total magnetization density are also calculated in order to demonstrate some details of the competition.

Condensation of bosons with several degrees of freedom

Rafael Delgado López

The condensation of the spinless ideal charged Bose gas in the presence of a magnetic field is revisited as a first step to tackle the more complex case of a molecular condensate, where several degrees of freedom have to be taken into account. \nIn the charged bose gas, the conventional approach is extended to include the macroscopic occupation of excited kinetic states lying in the lowest Landau level, which plays an essential role in the case of large magnetic fields. In that limit, signatures of two diffuse phase transitions (crossovers) appear in the specific heat. In particular, at temperatures lower than the cyclotron frequency, the system behaves as an effectively one-dimensional free boson system, with the specific heat equal to (1/2) NkB and a gradual condensation at lower temperatures. \nIn the molecular case, which is currently in progress, we have studied the condensation of rotational levels in a two–dimensional trap within the Bogoliubov approximation, showing that multi–step condensation also occurs.
