Abstract
The Bose equation of state has not progressed significantly since the universality regime discovery in terms of the s-wave scattering length, a. Nowadays no expansion exists to calculate the energy at higher densities, which does not show universality anymore and differs depending on the interaction potential of the particles. Current proposals are reviewed to study the possibility of extending the universality in terms of the s-wave effective range, r_0, and p-wave scattering length, a_1. We do so by achieving agreement using the Diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) method between the energies of systems presenting interaction potentials that share up to the aforementioned 2-body scattering parameters. It is obtained that potentials sharing at least the additional parameter r_0, of similar or less magnitude than a, show this better consensus in their energies at higher densities. Dependencies between the scattering parameters and the energy are explored to validate current theories and present a preliminary proposal for the next term in the series expansion.
