Finite-Temperature Bose-Einstein Condensation in Interacting Boson System

Abstract

Thermodynamical properties of an interacting boson system at finite temperatures and zero chemical potential are studied within the framework of the Skyrme-like mean-field toy model. It is assumed that the mean field contains both attractive and repulsive terms. Self-consistency relations between the mean field and thermodynamic functions are derived. It is shown that, for sufficiently strong attractive interactions, this system develops a first-order phase transition via the formation of a Bose condensate. An interesting prediction of the model is that the condensed phase is characterized by a constant total density of particles. It is shown that the energy density exhibits a jump at the critical temperature.

Bose–Einstein condensate under Gaussian random potentials

Muhammad Sajid, I Ashraf

Properties of Bose–Einstein condensates (BEC) are studied in the presence of a Gaussian random potential of arbitrary strength of disorder and with arbitrary correlation length. Using the stochastic mean field approximation, a system having arbitrary strength of interactions is treated at finite temperature. A special case, in which we assume that the second moment of the random potential is Lorentzian, is treated in more detail at zero temperature. The total density of particles consists of condensate density, glassy density and normal density components. Our results are in agreement with those of Huang and Meng (HM). The system is stable below the critical value of the disorder parameter and undergoes a first-order phase transition at the critical value. We find that the critical value of the disorder parameter changes with changing the correlation length of the random potential.

Bose-Einstein-condensed systems in random potentials

Vyacheslav I. Yukalov, R. Graham

The properties of systems with Bose-Einstein condensate in external time-independent random potentials are investigated in the frame of a self-consistent stochastic mean-field approximation. General considerations are presented, which are valid for finite temperatures, arbitrary strengths of the interaction potential, and for arbitrarily strong disorder potentials. The special case of a spatially uncorrelated random field is then treated in more detail. It is shown that the system consists of three components, condensed particles, uncondensed particles, and a glassy density fraction, but that the pure Bose glass phase with only a glassy density does not appear. The theory predicts a first-order phase transition for increasing disorder parameter, where the condensate fraction and the superfluid fraction simultaneously jump to zero. The influence of disorder on the ground-state energy, the stability conditions, the compressibility, the structure factor, and the sound velocity are analyzed. The uniform ideal condensed gas is shown to be always stochastically unstable, in the sense that an infinitesimally weak disorder destroys the Bose-Einstein condensate, returning the system to the normal state; but the uniform Bose-condensed system with finite repulsive interactions becomes stochastically stable and exists in a finite interval of the disorder parameter.

Transition Temperature in One-Dimensional Bose–Einstein Condensation

Shoichi Sakamoto, Hideki Matsumoto

The phase transition of the one-dimensional Bose gas, interacting weakly with a repulsive potential and trapped in an external parabolic potential, is studied in a mean field approximation. The Bose–Einstein condensed (BEC) state is identified by the non-vanishing thermal average of a bose field. Free energies between the BEC state and normal state are compared. A crossing of the free energies occurring at low temperature suggests the first order phase transition in an interacting one-dimensional bose system. From fitting of numerical results, the relation among the transition temperature T c , the total number of bosons N and the interaction V is also provided as a simple power law, T c ∝( N 2 V ) 2/3 .

Phase transitions in Bose-Fermi-Hubbard model in the heavy fermion limit: Hard-core boson approach

Stasyuk, Володимир Олександрович Краснов

Phase transitions are investigated in the Bose-Fermi-Hubbard model in the mean field and hard-core boson approximations for the case of infinitely small fermion transfer and repulsive on-site boson-fermion interaction.The behavior of the Bose-Einstein condensate order parameter and grand canonical potential is analyzed as functions of the chemical potential of bosons at zero temperature.The possibility of change of order of the phase transition to the superfluid phase in the regime of fixed values of the chemical potentials of Bose-and Fermi-particles is established.The relevant phase diagrams are built.

Thermodynamics of a Weakly Interacting Bose-Einstein Gas

Tor Haugset, Hårek Haugerud, F. Ravndal

Abstract: The one-loop effective potential for non-relativistic bosons with a delta function repulsive potential is calculated for a given chemical potential using functional methods. After renormalization and at zero temperature it reproduces the standard ground state energy and pressure as function of the particle density. At finite temperatures it is found necessary to include ring corrections to the one-loop result in order to satisfy the Goldstone theorem. It is natural to introduce an effective chemical potential directly related to the order parameter and which uniformly decreases with increasing temperatures. This is in contrast to the the ordinary chemical potential which peaks at the critical temperature. The resulting thermodynamics in the condensed phase at very low temperatures is found to be the same as in the Bogoliubov approximation where the degrees of freedom are given by the Goldstone bosons. At higher temperatures the ring corrections dominate and result in a critical temperature unaffected by the interaction. 1

Quantum phase transition in Bose-Fermi mixtures

D. Ludwig, Stefan Floerchinger, Sergej Moroz +1 more

We study a quantum Bose-Fermi mixture near a broad Feshbach resonance at zero temperature. Within a quantum field theoretical model, a two-step Gaussian approximation allows us to capture the main features of the quantum phase diagram. We show that a repulsive boson-boson interaction is necessary for thermodynamic stability. The quantum phase diagram is mapped in chemical-potential and density space, and both first- and second-order quantum phase transitions are found. We discuss typical characteristics of the first-order transition, such as hysteresis or a droplet formation of the condensate, which may be searched for experimentally.
