The properties of a Bose gas of translation-invariant (TI) bipolarons analogous to Cooper pairs are considered. As in the BCS theory, the description of a TI-bipolaron gas is based on the electron-phonon interaction and Froehlich Hamiltonian. As distinct from the BCS theory, when the correlation length greatly exceeds the mean distance between the pairs, here we deal with the opposite case when the correlation length is much less than the distance between the pairs. We calculate the critical temperature of the transition of a TI-bipolaron Bose-gas into the superconducting state, its energy, heat capacity and heat of the transition. The results obtained are used to explain the experiments on high-temperature superconductors. Possible ways of raising the critical temperature of high-temperature superconductors are discussed.
The thermodynamics of a free Bose gas with effective temperature scale
T~ and hard-sphere Bose gas with the
T~ scale are studied.
T~ arises as the temperature experienced by a single particle in a quantum gas with 2-body harmonic oscillator interaction
Vosc, which at low temperatures is expected to simulate, almost correctly, the attractive part of the interatomic potential
VHe between
4He atoms. The repulsive part of
VHe is simulated by a hard-sphere (HS) potential. The thermodynamics of this system of HS bosons, with the
T~ temperature scale (HSET), is investigated, first, by the Bogoliubov-Huang method and next by a modified version of this method, which takes approximate account of those terms of the 2-body repulsion which are linear in the zero-momentum Bose operators
a0,a0∗ (originally rejected by Bogoliubov). Theoretical heat capacity
CV(T) exhibits good agreement, below 2.1 K, with the experimental heat capacity graph observed in
4He at saturated vapour pressure. The phase transition to the low-temperature phase, with a Bose-Einstein condensate, occurs in the HSET at $T_λ=$2.17 K, and is accompanied, in the modified HSET version, by a singularity of
CV(T). Other thermal properties of HSET, such as the momentum distribution function, the fraction of atoms in the momentum condensate and normal fluid density, agree qualitatively with those of
4He, but improve those of the free Bose gas.
We report on a superfluid properties of a Bose- Einstein condensate in a rotating harmonic trap. We employ the semiclassical approximation, which is the density of state approach. Our approach provided the finite size effect. The superfluid fraction of bosons and its heat capacity at constant volume are investigated. The calculated results provide a good qualitative agreement with the measured experimental results for superfluid helium 4H. Moreover, furnish useful qualitatively theoretical results for a spectroscopic measurement of the superfluid fraction of an ultracold atomic gas [N. R. Cooper and Z. Hadzibabic, Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 030401 (2010)]. Our results show that both The superfluid fraction of bosons and its heat capacity depend on the number of the atoms. This significant dependence should be considered when the it in situ widths are used in extracting measurable experimental quantities. Our approach can be extended to consider the rotating condensate in optical potential .
