Bose-Einstein Condensation of an Ideal Bose Gas Trapped in the Low Dimensional Space
Liu Jing-yi
Abstract
By using the local density approximation, Bose-Einstein condensation of Bose gas in the low dimensional space is investigated. The results show that when a proper external potential is taken, BEC may occur in the low dimensional space. The critical temperature Tc, the ground state fraction N0/N and the behaviour (jump or not) of the heat capacity C depend on the shape of the potential.
