Abstract

Classic and recent results for the critical behaviour of ideal Bose gas at constant volume and constant pressure and for various spatial dimensionalities d>0 are reviewed. New results about the critical properties in a close vicinity of the $λ-$point are presented.

Ideal Bose Einstein condensation and disorder effects

P. Lacour-Gayet, G. Toulouse

Ideal Bose Einstein condensation is studied as a cooperative phase transition for arbitrary dimensionality. The correspondence with the n → ∞ limit of the n-vector model in the constant volume case and with the n = — 2 limit in the constant pressure case is discussed and precised. The influence of a special type of disorder (random sources and sinks) is studied ; a sharp phase transition occurs with new critical exponents which are calculated and shown to violate some scaling laws.

On phase transitions in Bose gases at constant density and constant pressure

Velin G. Ivanov

The phase transitions in Bose gases at constant volume and constant pressure are considered. New results for the chemical potential, the effective Landau‐Ginzburg free energy and the equation of state of the Bose‐Einstein condensate in ideal Bose gases with a general form of the energy spectrum are presented. Unresolved problems are discussed.

Bose–Einstein condensation in mesoscopic systems: The self-similar structure of the critical region and the nonequivalence of the canonical and grand canonical ensembles

Vl. V. Kocharovsky, Vl. V. Kocharovsky, Sergey V. Tarasov

The analytical theory of Bose–Einstein condensation of an ideal gas in mesoscopic systems has been briefly reviewed in application to traps with arbitrary shapes and dimension. This theory describes the phases of the classical gas and the formed Bose–Einstein condensate, as well as the entire vicinity of the phase transition point. The statistics and thermodynamics of Bose–Einstein condensation have been studied in detail, including their self-similar structure in the critical region, transition to the thermodynamic limit, effect of boundary conditions on the properties of a system, and nonequivalence of the description of Bose–Einstein condensation in different statistical ensembles. The complete classification of universality classes of Bose–Einstein condensation has been given.

Bose-Einstein condensation in a two-dimensional system at constant pressure

A. N. Chaba, Raj K. Pathria

Using techniques developed by Greenspoon and Pathria, a rigorous, asymptotic analysis of the onset of Bose-Einstein condensation in a finite two-dimensional system at constant pressure is carried out. Some of the results obtained by Imry, Bergman, and Gunther, who first considered this problem, are upheld while others get modified. In particular, a macroscopic occupation of the single-particle ground state at finite temperatures is indeed possible. As the critical region, $T\ensuremath{\simeq}{T}_{c}$, is approached from above, the volume of the system becomes subextensive, ${V}_{c}=O(\frac{N}{\mathrm{ln}N})$, which is both necessary and sufficient for the onset of Bose-Einstein condensation in the system. For instance, if the system is now cooled even at constant volume $V(={V}_{c})$, the condensate fraction gradually builds up and becomes nonnegligible as $T$ approaches ${T}_{0}\ensuremath{\simeq}\frac{({T}_{c})}{2}$; below ${T}_{0}$, it grows steadily as $(1\ensuremath{-}\frac{T}{{T}_{0}})$. On the other hand, if we continued to cool the system at constant $P$ its volume, over a thermodynamically negligible range of temperatures, would reduce to values $O({N}^{\frac{1}{2}})$ which, in turn, would be accompanied by an abrupt accumulation of practically all the particles of the system into the single-particle ground state ${\ensuremath{\epsilon}}_{0}$. The specific heat ${C}_{P}$, after having passed through a maximum, would also finally reduce to subextensive values. Phase transitions of this kind may be of relevance to the physical behavior of thin helium films and helium submonolayers.

Bose-Einstein condensation at constant pressure

Yu. M. Poluéktov

In the weakly non-ideal gas model [1], the Bose-Einstein condensation at constant pressure is considered. The temperature of transition to the state with condensate is found. Temperature dependences of the total density and condensate density, the energy, entropy and heat capacities are calculated.

Analysis of Bose-Einstein condensation for an ideal relativistic Bose gas in d dimensions

Ralf Beckmann, F. Karsch, David E. Miller

We investigate the conditions for Bose-Einstein condensation of an ideal relativistic Bose gas in various spatial dimensions. From the direct numerical evaluations of the equations for the density and the specific-heat anomaly, we are able to show the qualitative difference between the massive and massless relativistic systems. As a consequence we are able to discuss the dependence of the critical exponents upon the spatial dimensionality for this system.
