Виходячи з перших принципів статистичної механіки, побудовано дворідинну гідродинаміку надпровідника в ідеальному наближенні. Для побудови гідродинаміки використано систему рівнянь руху для нормальної та аномальної кореляційних функцій. Перехід до рівнянь гідродинаміки здійснюється через розклад рівнянь руху для кореляційних функцій за малим параметром.

On the microscopic theory of superfluid liquids

N. N. Bogolyubov, M. Yu. Kovalevskiĭ, A. M. Kurbatov +2 more

This review presents a microscopic construction of the thermodynamics and hydrodynamics of superfluid bosons and fermions with singlet pairing, based on the concept of quasiaverages and the hypothesis of reduced description. Here we do not assume that the Hamiltonian possesses any dynamical symmetry. This has permitted obtaining results pertaining to both Galilean-invariant and relativistic systems. Account is taken of dissipative processes. The kinetic coefficients are presented in terms of the correlation functions of the flux operators. The approach is extended to solutions of quantum liquids. The influence of an external ac field on superfluid systems is studied, and the low-frequency asymptotic behavior of the Green's function is found in the hydrodynamic approximation. The symmetry properties of the equilibrium state are formulated, and the thermodynamics is constructed for superfluid Fermi systems with triplet pairing (the superfluid phases 3 He-B and 3 He-A). For the latter the flux densities of the additive integrals of motion are found in a state of equilibrium and the equations of "ideal" hydrodynamics are derived.

Theory of a superfluid Fermi liquid

Alexander I. Akhiezer, Красильников Владимир Владимирович, S. V. Peletminskiǐ +1 more

A Fermi-liquid approach to the theory of superfluidity is developed, based on a generalization of the combinatoric expression for the entropy to the case in which the state of the Fermi liquid is described not only by a normal but also by an anomalous distribution function. The energy of the superfluid Fermi liquid is given in the form of a functional of these distribution functions. In the weak-coupling approximation the Fermi-liquid approach is equivalent to the BCS theory. The interaction between the Fermi liquid and an electromagnetic field is gauge invariant. In addition to the singlet-pairing theory the triplet-pairing theory is also developed. A unified variational principle that gives rise to the theory of superfluidity (superconductivity) is used to obtain the London equations and the Ginzburg–Landau equation. Applications of this theory are made to the derivation of an equation for ideal two-component hydrodynamics.

The way from microscopic many-particle theory to macroscopic hydrodynamics

R. Haussmann

Starting from the microscopic description of a normal fluid in terms of any kind of local interacting many-particle theory we present a well defined step by step procedure to derive the hydrodynamic equations for the macroscopic phenomena. We specify the densities of the conserved quantities as the relevant hydrodynamic variables and apply the methods of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics with projection operator techniques. As a result we obtain time-evolution equations for the hydrodynamic variables with three kinds of terms on the right-hand sides: reversible, dissipative and fluctuating terms. In their original form these equations are completely exact and contain nonlocal terms in space and time which describe nonlocal memory effects. Applying a few approximations the nonlocal properties and the memory effects are removed. As a result we find the well known hydrodynamic equations of a normal fluid with Gaussian fluctuating forces. In the following we investigate if and how the time-inversion invariance is broken and how the second law of thermodynamics comes about. Furthermore, we show that the hydrodynamic equations with fluctuating forces are equivalent to stochastic Langevin equations and the related Fokker-Planck equation. Finally, we investigate the fluctuation theorem and find a modification by an additional term.

Fundamentals of superfluid hydrodynamics in Bose-condensed systems

Tsubota Makoto, Kasamatsu Makoto

Abstract Chapter 2 describes the basic knowledge of Bose-condensed systems in order to study the quantum hydrodynamics for both the superfluid helium and the atomic-gas BECs in the following sections. Starting from the field theoretical formulation, we will first give a self-contained explanation of the derivation of the most fundamental GP equation for weakly interacting Bose gases at zero temperature. We will also highlight the theoretical treatment for incorporating the concept of elementary excitations to describe low-energy excitations of Bose systems, the definition of normal and superfluid components, and eventually the celebrated model of two-fluid hydrodynamics. Finally, the microscopic structure and dynamics of topological excitations obtained from the GP equation are discussed by exemplifying solitons, vortex lines, and vortex rings.
