Abstract

Using variational perturbation theory, we calculate the shift in the critical temperature Tcup to five loops to lowest order in the scattering length a and find [Formula: see text], where n is the particle density. Our result is slightly lower than the latest Monte Carlo result (1.32±0.02) an1/3.

We compute the shift of the transition temperature for a homogeneous weakly interacting Bose gas in leading order in the scattering length a for given particle density n. Using variational perturbation theory through six loops in a classical three-dimensional scalar field theory, we obtain $\ensuremath{\Delta}{T}_{c}{/T}_{c}=1.25\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}{0.13an}^{1/3},$ in agreement with recent Monte Carlo results.

Bose-Einstein condensation temperature of a homogenous weakly interacting Bose gas in variational perturbation theory through seven loops

Boris Kastening

The shift of the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature for a homogenous weakly interacting Bose gas in leading order in the scattering length $a$ is computed for given particle density $n$. Variational perturbation theory is used to resum the corresponding perturbative series for $\ensuremath{\Delta}⟨{\ensuremath{\phi}}^{2}⟩∕Nu$ in a classical three-dimensional scalar field theory with coupling $u$ and where the physical case of $N=2$ field components is generalized to arbitrary $N$. Our results for $N=1,2,4$ are in agreement with recent Monte Carlo simulations; for $N=2$, we obtain $\ensuremath{\Delta}{T}_{c}∕{T}_{0}=(1.27\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.11)a{n}^{1∕3}$. We use seven-loop perturbative coefficients, extending earlier work by one loop order.

Shift of BEC Temperature of Homogenous Weakly Interacting Bose Gas

Boris Kastening

We report on the computation of the shift of the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature for a homogenous weakly interacting Bose gas in leading order in the diluteness parameter a n^(1/3), where `a' is the scattering length and `n' is the particle density. The perturbative series, which is afflicted by infrared divergences, is resummed by means of variational perturbation theory. Using coefficients through seven loops, we arrive at Delta T_c/T_c = 1.27 +/- 0.11 a n^(1/3), which compares favorably with recent Monte-Carlo data.

Quantum phase diagram for homogeneous Bose-Einstein condensate

H. Kleinert, Sebastian Schmidt, Axel Pelster

We calculate the quantum phase transition for a homogeneous Bose gas in the plane of s-wave scattering length as and temperature T. This is done by improving a one-loop result near the interaction-free Bose-Einstein critical temperature Tc(0) with the help of recent high-loop results on the shift of the critical temperature due to a weak atomic repulsion based on variational perturbation theory. The quantum phase diagram shows a nose above Tc(0), so that we predict the existence of a reentrant transition above Tc(0), where an increasing repulsion leads to the formation of a condensate.

Semi-analytic calculation of the shift in the critical temperature for bose-einstein condensation

Eugeniu Radescu

The leading correction from interactions to the transition temperature Tc for Bose-Einstein condensation can be obtained from a nonperturbative calculation in the critical O( N) scalar field theory in 3 dimensions with N = 2. We show that the linear δ expansion can be applied to this problem in such a way that in the large- N limit it converges to the exact analytic result. If the principal of minimal sensitivity is used to optimize the convergence rate, the errors seem to decrease exponentially with the order in the δ expansion. For N = 2, we calculate the shift in Tc to fifth order in δ. The results are consistent with slow convergence to the results of recent lattice Monte Carlo calculations. The convergence can be accelerated by using a resummation method proposed by Kleinert et al. called variational perturbation theory.

Bose-Einstein condensation temperature of a homogeneous weakly interacting Bose gas: Path integral Monte Carlo study

Kwangsik T. Nho, David Paul Landau

Using a finite-temperature path integral Monte Carlo simulation (PIMC) method and finite-size scaling, we have investigated the interaction-induced shift of the phase-transition temperature for Bose-Einstein condensation of homogeneous weakly interacting Bose gases in three dimensions, which is given by a proposed analytical expression ${T}_{c}={T}_{c}^{0}{1+{c}_{1}a{n}^{1∕3}+[{c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{'}}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\mathrm{ln}(a{n}^{1∕3})+{c}_{2}^{\ensuremath{''}}]{a}^{2}{n}^{2∕3}+\mathrm{O}({a}^{3}n)}$, where ${T}_{c}^{0}$ is the critical temperature for an ideal gas, $a$ is the $s$-wave scattering length, and $n$ is the number density. We have used smaller number densities and more time slices than in the previous PIMC simulations [Gruter et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 79, 3549 (1997)] in order to understand the difference in the value of the coefficient ${c}_{1}$ between their results and the (apparently) other reliable results in the literature. Our results show that ${({T}_{c}\ensuremath{-}{T}_{c}^{0})∕{T}_{c}^{0}}∕(a{n}^{1∕3})$ depends strongly on the interaction strength $a{n}^{1∕3}$ while the previous PIMC results are considerably flatter and smaller than our results. We obtain ${c}_{1}=1.32\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.14$, in agreement with results from recent Monte Carlo methods of three-dimensional O(2) scalar ${\ensuremath{\phi}}^{4}$ field theory and variational perturbation theory.
