Abstract

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 .

Thermodynamical properties of a rotating ideal Bose gas

Sebastian Kling, Axel Pelster

In a recent experiment, a Bose-Einstein condensate was trapped in an anharmonic potential that is well approximated by a harmonic and a quartic part. The condensate was set into such a fast rotation that the centrifugal force in the corotating frame overcompensates the harmonic part in the plane perpendicular to the rotation axis. Thus, the resulting trap potential becomes sombrero shaped. We present an analysis for an ideal Bose gas that is confined in such an anharmonic rotating trap within a semiclassical approximation, where we calculate the critical temperature, the condensate fraction, and the heat capacity. In particular, we examine in detail how these thermodynamical quantities depend on the rotation frequency.

Thermodynamic properties of a rotating Bose--Einstein condensation in a deep optical lattice

Hend A. Abdel-Gany, Ali Y. ELLITHI, Abdelhamid Abdelhak Galal +1 more

In this paper, we suggest a conventional semiclassical approximation to calculate several thermodynamic quantities of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensation in a deep optical lattice. Expressions for the condensation fraction, critical temperature, and heat capacity are derived analytically. These expressions are obtained by considering the standard harmonic approximation of the deep optical lattice potential. The suggested approach is able to include the the finite size and the positive chemical potential effects simultaneously. The advantage of our suggested approach is in its simplicity, in comparison to the quantum-mechanical calculations (Bose-Hubbard model). Moreover, its generality allows the treatment of a finite temperature regime

Temperature dependence of the vortices number for rotating superfluid Bose-Einstein condensates in a two-dimensional lattice

Ahmed S. Hassan, Azza M. El-Badry, Adel M. Mohammedein +1 more

We developed an approach to investigate the temperature dependence of the vortices number for the rotating superfluid Bose-Einstein condensates in a two-dimensional lattice. Our approach enabled us to parametrize the thermal average of the quantum mechanics expectation value and the vortices number in terms of the thermodynamic potential $q(T)$ for the system under consideration. The effects of the interatomic interaction, the finite number of atoms, and optical potential depth on the vortices number are investigated. The calculated results show that the vortices number as a function of the rotation rate depends on the normalized temperature, interatomic interaction, optical potential depth, and the number of atoms in the ${\in situ}$ size. These results provide solid theoretical foundations for the measured experimental data for rotating condensate boson in optical lattice such as Williams et. al experiment [R. A. Williams, S. Al-Assam, and C. J. Foot, Phys. Rev. Lett. { 104} (2010) 050404.].

Bose-Einstein condensation in anisotropic harmonic traps

Tor Haugset, Hårek Haugerud, Jens O. Andersen

We study the thermodynamic behavior of an ideal gas of bosons trapped in a three-dimensional anisotropic harmonic-oscillator potential. The condensate fraction as well as the specific heat is calculated using the Euler-Maclaurin approximation. For a finite number of particles there is no phase transition, but there is a well-defined temperature at which the condensation starts. We also consider condensation in lower dimensions, and, for one-dimensional systems, we discuss the dependence of the condensate fraction and heat capacity on the ensemble used.

Finite Size Effect on Bose-Einstein Condensation

Shyamal Biswas

We show various aspects of finite size effects on Bose-Einstein condensation(BEC). In the first section we introduce very briefly the BEC of harmonically trapped ideal Bose gas. In the second section we theoretically argued that Bose-Einstein(B-E) statistics needs a correction for finite system at ultralow temperatures. As a corrected statistics we introduced a Tsallis type of generalized B-E statistics. The condensate fraction calculated with this generalized B-E statistics, is satisfied well with the experimental result. In the third section we show how to apply the scaling theory in an inhomogeneous system like harmonically trapped Bose condensate at finite temperatures. We calculate the temperature dependence of the critical number of particles by a scaling theory within the Hartree-Fock approximation and find that there is a dramatic increase in the critical number of particles as the condensation point is approached. Our results support the experimental result which was obtained well below the condensation temperature. In the fourth section we concentrate on the thermodynamic Casimir force on the Bose-Einstein condensate. We explored the temperature dependence of the Casimir force.

Bose-Einstein condensation in the harmonic oscillator potential

Hårek Haugerud, F. Ravndal

The Bose-Einstein condensation of a dilute gas of rubidium-87 atoms was achieved by cooling a small number of atoms in a magnetic trap. The effective potential of the trap is to lowest order harmonic and under these conditions we estimate the critical temperature and the heat capacity of an ideal gas of Bose particles. Previously this has been estimated within the semiclassical approximation. However, because of the small number of atoms, the resulting $T_c$ deviates slightly from our result obtained by exact numerical calculations. For the gap of the heat capacity at the transition point the deviation is $20\%$.
