Degenerate Bose System. III. Dilute Gas of Hard Spheres

Published Aug 17, 1964• 5 citations

Abstract

The general formalism developed in the preceding two papers of this series is applied to the dilute gas of Bose hard spheres. The well-known results of Lee, Huang, and Yang for the ground state of this model gas are duplicated. The possibility of including a weak attraction in addition to the repulsive cores is considered, and it is shown that the simple scattering length approximation is valid for positive scattering lengths.

We establish an upper bound for the ground state energy density of a dilute Bose gas, interacting through a general short-range, repulsive potential. To reach this goal, we extend the approach recently introduced in [1] for hard spheres.

Abstract We prove the following formula for the ground state energy density of a dilute Bose gas with density $$\rho $$ ρ in 2 dimensions in the thermodynamic limit $$\begin{aligned} e^{\text {2D}}(\rho ) = 4\pi \rho ^2 Y\Big (1 - Y \vert \log Y \vert + \Big ( 2\Gamma + \frac{1}{2} + \log (\pi ) \Big ) Y \Big ) + o(\rho ^2 Y^{2}), \end{aligned}$$ e 2D ( ρ ) = 4 π ρ 2 Y ( 1 - Y | log Y | + ( 2 Γ + 1 2 + log ( π ) ) Y ) + o ( ρ 2 Y 2 ) , as $$\rho a^2 \rightarrow 0$$ ρ a 2 → 0 . Here $$Y= |\log (\rho a^2)|^{-1}$$ Y = | log ( ρ a 2 ) | - 1 and a is the scattering length of the two-body potential. This result in 2 dimensions corresponds to the famous Lee–Huang–Yang formula in 3 dimensions. The proof is valid for essentially all positive potentials with finite scattering length, in particular, it covers the crucial case of the hard core potential.

Thermodynamical Functions of a Dilute Hard-Sphere Bose Gas

Shokichi Kanno

We obtain thermodynamical functions for a dilute Bose gas of hard spheres by using the efffective Hamiltonian which is obtained by a quasi-linear transformation proposed previously and may be recognized as an improvement of the model Hamiltonian of Lee and Yang which is not correct about the terms of second order in the diameter of hard spheres when it is applied to the problem of the phase transition. The Bose condensation occurs at a temperature below which the degenerate phase of the quasi-particles appears. We evaluate the amount of the gap of the specific heat and that of the compressibility at the transition point.We obtain thermodynamical functions for a dilute Bose gas of hard spheres by using the efffective Hamiltonian which is obtained by a quasi-linear transformation proposed previously and may be recognized as an improvement of the model Hamiltonian of Lee and Yang which is not correct about the terms of second order in the diameter of hard spheres when it is applied to the problem of the phase transition.

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.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.
