Abstract

The properties of Green's functions and various correlation functions of density and spin operators are considered in a homogeneous spin-1 Bose gas in different phases. The dielectric formalism is worked out and the partial coincidence of the one particle and collective spectra is pointed out below the temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation. As an application, the formalism is used to give two approximations for the propagators and the correlation functions and the spectra of excitations including shifts and widths due to the thermal cloud.

Properties of excitations in systems with a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate

P. Szépfalusy, Gergely Szirmai

A homogeneous gas of atoms with hyperfine spin $F=1$ is considered below the critical temperature of the Bose-Einstein condensation. The general structure of the correlation functions (both for density and spin fluctuations) and their connection to the thermal Green's functions are worked out. The damping of the modes is calculated in the random-phase approximation.

Single-particle and collective excitations in a charged Bose gas at finite temperature

B. Davoudi, M. P. Tosi

The main focus of this work is on the predictions made by the dielectric formalism in regard to the relationship between single-particle and collective excitation spectra in a gas of pointlike charged bosons at finite temperature $T$ below the critical region of Bose-Einstein condensation. Illustrative numerical results at weak coupling $({r}_{s}=1)$ are presented within the random phase approximation. We show that within this approach the single-particle spectrum forms a continuum extending from the transverse to the longitudinal plasma mode frequency and leading to a double-peak structure as $T$ increases, whereas the density fluctuation spectrum consists of a single broad peak. We also discuss the momentum distribution and the superfluidity of the gas.

Strong connection between single-particle and density excitations in Bose–Einstein condensates

Shohei Watabe

Abstract Strong connection between the single-particle excitation and the collective excitation stands out as one of the features of Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs). We discuss theoretically these single-particle and density excitations of BECs focusing on the exact properties of the one-body and two-body Green’s functions developed by Gavoret and Nozières. We also investigate these excitations by using the many-body approximation theory at nonzero temperatures. First, we revisited the earlier study presented by Gavoret and Nozières, involving the subsequent results given by Nepomnyashchii and Nepomnyashchii, in terms of the matrix formalism representation. This matrix formalism is an extension of the Nambu representation for the single-particle Green’s function of BECs to discuss the density and current response functions efficiently. We describe the exact low-energy properties of the correlation functions and the vertex functions, and discuss the correspondence of the spectra between the single-particle excitation and the density excitation in the low-energy and low-momentum limits at T = 0. After deriving the exact low-energy structures of the one-body and two-body Green’s functions, we develop a many-body approximation theory of BECs with making the use of the matrix formalism for describing the single-particle Green’s function and the density response function at nonzero temperatures. We show how the peaks of the single-particle spectral function and the density response function behave with an increasing temperature. Many-body effect on the single-particle spectral function and the density response function is included within a random phase approximation, where satellite structures emerge because of beyond-mean-field effects. Criticisms are also made on recent theories casting doubt upon the conventional wisdom of the BEC: the equivalence of the dispersion relations between the single-particle excitation and the collective excitation in the low-energy and low-momentum regime.

Dielectric formalism for a Bose fluid

Allan Griffin

In Chapter 3, we have shown how a Bose condensate leads to the single-particle Green's function G αβ ( Q , ω) appearing as a distinct component of the the dynamic structure factor S ( Q , ω). This feature is a direct consequence of (3.13) and is explicitly shown by the expression for S ( Q , ω) in (3.18). In the present chapter, we review the many-body diagrammatic analysis which specifies the precise relation between G αβ ( Q , ω) and S ( Q , ω) in a Bose-condensed fluid ( n 0 ≠ 0). The power of this “dielectric formalism” lies in showing that both functions mirror each other, as a result of the condensate-induced intermixing of single-particle and density excitations. At the same time, the formalism emphasizes the continuity of these excitations as the fluid passes through T λ, although these excitations have very temperature-dependent weights in G αβ ( Q , ω) and S ( Q , ω). While it is the poles of the single-particle Green's function which describe the elementary excitations, experimentally it is difficult to probe directly this field-fluctuation spectrum. In particular, it is only in a Bose-condensed fluid that one can obtain information about G αβ ( Q , ω) from inelastic neutron-scattering data on S ( Q , ω). In the absence of a condensate, there is little relation between the density-fluctuation modes and the single-particle excitations in a Bose fluid. After setting up the dielectric formalism in Section 5.1, the next two sections consider some model approximations at finite temperatures. These models are most appropriate to a dilute weakly interacting Bose gas (WIDBG), but we believe they also give crucial insight into various aspects of superfluid 4 He.

Energies and damping rates of elementary excitations in spin-1 Bose-Einstein-condensed gases

Gergely Szirmai, P. Szépfalusy, Krisztián Kis-Szabó

The finite temperature Green's function technique is used to calculate the energies and damping rates of the elementary excitations of homogeneous, dilute, spin-1 Bose gases below the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature in both the density and spin channels. For this purpose a self-consistent dynamical Hartree-Fock model is formulated, which takes into account the direct and exchange processes on equal footing by summing up certain classes of Feynman diagrams. The model is shown to satisfy the Goldstone theorem and to exhibit the hybridization of one-particle and collective excitations correctly. The results are applied to gases of ${}^{23}\mathrm{Na}$ and ${}^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ atoms.

Collective excitations and the gap in spectrum of the degenerated Bose gas

Viktor Borisovich Bobrov, S. A. Trigger

Model of the degenerated weakly non-ideal Bose gas is considered without suggestion on C-number representation of the creation and annihilation operators with zero momentum. The "density-density" correlation function and the one-particle Green function are calculated on basis of the suggestion about C-number representation of the operator of particle density in the Bose condensate. It is shown, that the pole in the "density-density" Green function determines the Bogolyubov's spectrum of the collective excitations, which have the phonon-roton form. At the same time the spectrum of the one-particle excitations possesses a gap, whose value is connected with the density of particles in the Bose condensate.
