Abstract

It is the purpose of this article to give an analysis of the one- and two-particle distribution functions of the ideal Bose gas and the hard sphere Bose gas. The distribution functions of the ideal Bose gas are expanded in two forms which are useful for the cases of r ≫λTT and r ≪λT, respectively. The analysis for the hard sphere gas are performed in the chain approximation or the Bogolyubov approximation. Asymptotic forms are given for the various limiting cases separately, where the cases are classified by the relative magnitudes of r/Rc, λT/Rc and unity.

Theory of Degenerate and Non-Degenerate Bose Fluids and Calculation of the Pair Distribution Function

Tohru Morita

Recently the present author developed a diagram formalism applicable to the degenerate Bose fluids.The present author and Hara applied the formalism to show that the long distance 1/r and 1/r 2 behaviors of the pair distribution function are exactly cancelled for interacting Bose fluids.The basic ideas of the formalism have been given in separate articles.It is the purpose of the present article to present the formalism in a unified form.The formalism is developed in the canonical ensemble.However the generating function is used.Hence a criterion of the equivalence of the canonical and grand canonical ensembles is given and used in the discussions.Replacement of operators ao and at by a c•number na' 2 is performed with the same degree of care as Kromminga and Bolsteri took in treating the zero-temperature problem.Hugenholtz and Pines's relation is generalized to finite temperatures.The cancellation of the long-distance 1/r and 1/r 2 behaviors at and below the 'A temperature is briefly discussed.For some of details, readers are requested to read the preceding articles.§ 1. § 2. § 3. § 4. § 5. § 6. § 7. § 8. § 9. §10.§11.§12.§13.§14.§15.§16.Al.Contents Introduction, 70 Operators for the one-and two-particle distribution functions, 73 Second quantization, 73 Canonical and grand canonical ensemble averages, 76 Equivalence of the canonical and grand canonical ensembles, 80 Ideal Bose gas, 83 Diagram expansion for non-degenerate interacting Bose fluids, 87 Lee and Yang's expansion and binary collision expansion, 90 Equivalent Hamiltonian and the averages equivalent to the canonical averages of degenerate Bose fluids, 91 Diagram expansion for degenerate interacting Bose fluids, 95 Distribution functions of the ideal Bose gas, 99 Chain approximation for the degenerate case, 100 Bogolyubov Hamiltonian and Bogolyubov transformation, 102 Cancellation of 1/r and 1/r 2 terms in pC 2 )(r) for the degenerate case 104 Cancellation of 1/r 2 terms in pC 2 )(r) just above TJ.., 107 Discussions and comparison with related works, 108 Calculation for the second quantization, 111 T.

Evaluation of the Pair Distribution Function of a Hard-Sphere Bose Gas at Zero Temperature

A. Isihara, Donald W. Jepsen

An explicit evaluation of the pair distribution function of a hard-sphere Bose gas at zero temperature is made. The result correct to first order in a hard-sphere diameter and based on a chain-diagram approximation is plotted, and the corresponding numerical values are given. Approximate analytical expressions for the distribution function at various distances are also reported.

On the Pair Distribution Function of a Hard Sphere Bose System

Leopoldo S. Garcı́a-Colı́n, Jean Peretti

The pair distribution function for a quantum Bose gas is expressed as a power series in terms of the fugacity, the coefficients of which are temperature dependent. For the hard sphere case, these coefficients have been evaluated to the first order in a/λ, (a being the scattering length and λ the thermal wavelength) by using torons with two fixed points, or alternatively U cluster functions. The result gives the first order correction to the ideal gas formula of London and Placzek introduced by the interactions between the particles.

Cluster Expansion for Quantum Gases. III

Hiroaki Hara, Hiroshi Ichimura, Tohru Morita

The pair distribution function of a hard-sphere Bose gas is evaluated using a modified cluster expansion formula developed in the preceding papers of this series [H. Ichimura, Prog. Theor. Phys. 31 (1964), 538; ibid. 37 (1967), 484]. The contributions for the pair distribution function are expressed in terms of diagrams, and a partial summation of the chain-type diagrams is carried out. The temperature dependence of the resultant expression is investigated for low temperatures, at short and long distances. The result is compared with the expression for the pair distribution function which has been obtained for a weakly interacting Bose gas. The two- and three-particle distribution functions for a degenerate ideal Bose system are derived.

Pair Distribution Function of a Hard Sphere Bose System Calculated by the Pseudo-Potential Method

Leopoldo S. Garcı́a-Colı́n

The pair distribution function for a hard sphere Bose system has been calculated by using a method in which the hard sphere potential is replaced by the so-called pseudo-potential. The problem is carried through using the quasi-particle formalism of Bogoliubov. In this calculation one considers a system of bosons interacting via the pseudo-potential which can be regarded as a weak interaction when the system is very dilute. The Hamiltonian of the system is diagonalized by means of a canonical transformation which has the effect of separating the energy into two parts, one of which is the ground state energy and the other corresponds to an ideal Bose gas composed of ``elementary excitations'' or ``quasi-particles.'' This formalism is applied to the calculation of the pair distribution function. This quantity is calculated by averaging over a grand canonical ensemble constructed with the total number of elementary excitations. A result which is seen to be valid both for the condensed and gaseous phases of the system and also for any distance r between the particles is obtained. A discussion of the difference between these results and the ones obtained in a previous calculation and a comparison between both results and the experimental ones is also given.

Reduced Density Matrices and the Hard-Sphere Bose Gas

Donald Wright

The thermodynamic properties of the hard-sphere Bose gas are calculated from the one- and two-particle density matrices. The one- and two-particle density matrices are evaluated in the Bogoliubov approximation. The off-diagonal elements of the one- and two-particle density matrices are studied for the presence or absence of off-diagonal long-range order in various temperature regions. Off-diagonal long-range order was found in the single-particle density matrix below the Bose-Einstein transition temperature. The two-particle density matrix also exhibited off-diagonal long-range order whenever the single-particle density matrix did.
