Abstract

A system of N bosons in a two-dimensional harmonic trap is considered. The system is treated in term of the slave boson representation for hard-core bosons which is valid in the arbitrary density regimes. I discuss the consequences of higher order interactions on the density profiles by mapping the slave boson equation to the known Kohn-Sham type equation within the density functional scheme.

Bose-Einstein condensation in a trap: The case of a dense condensate

K. Ziegler, Alok Shukla

We consider the Bose-Einstein condensation of atoms in a trap where the density of particles is so high that the low-density approach of Gross [J. Math. Phys. (N.Y.) 4, 195 (1963)] and Pitaevskii $($V. L. Ginsburg and L. P. Pitaevskii, Zh. \'Eksp. Teor. Fiz. 34, 1240 (1958) [Sov. Phys. JETP 7, 1858 (1958)]$)$ will not be applicable. For this purpose we use the slave boson representation which is valid for hard-core bosons at any density. This description leads to the same results as the Gross-Pitaevskii approach in the low-density limit, but for higher densities, it predicts the depletion of the condensate in the regions where the density of the atomic cloud is high.

Strongly interacting one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates in harmonic traps

B. Tanatar, K. Erkan

We study the interaction effects on the condensates by considering a model of one-dimensional bosons. The harmonic external potential allows for the formation of a condensate in these systems. Using a density-functional theory-type formalism we obtain an equation describing the condensate wave function in the limit of very strong interactions between the bosons. We then consider a model of strongly interacting two-component system of bosons and study its stability conditions. Similar to the weakly interacting case, the two-component system exhibits coexisting and segregated phases depending on system parameters.

A renormalized Gross–Pitaevskii theory and vortices in a strongly interacting Bose gas

Ch. Moseley, K. Ziegler

We consider a strongly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate in a spherical harmonic trap. The system is treated by applying a slave-boson representation for hard-core bosons. A renormalized Gross-Pitaevskii theory is derived for the condensate wave function that describes the dilute regime (like the conventional Gross-Pitaevskii theory) as well as the dense regime. We calculate the condensate density of a rotating condensate for both the vortex-free condensate and the condensate with a single vortex and determine the critical angular velocity for the formation of a stable vortex in a rotating trap.

Variational Monte Carlo analysis of Bose–Einstein condensation in a two-dimensional trap

Zheng Rong-Jie, Jing Jin, Yi Ping Tang

The ground-state properties of a system with a small number of interacting bosons over a wide range of densities are investigated. The system is confined in a two-dimensional isotropic harmonic trap, where the interaction between bosons is treated as a hard-core potential. By using variational Monte Carlo method, we diagonalize the one-body density matrix of the system to obtain the ground-state energy, condensate wavefunction and the condensate fraction. We find that in the dilute limit the depletion of central condensate in the 2D system is larger than in a 3D system for the same interaction strength; however as the density increases, the depletion at the centre of 2D trap will be equal to or even lower than that at the centre of 3D trap, which is in agreement with the anticipated in Thomas–Fermi approximation. In addition, in the 2D system the total condensate depletion is still larger than in a 3D system for the same scattering length.

Ground-state properties of a one-dimensional system of hard-core bosons in a harmonic trap

Marvin D. Girardeau, Ewan M. Wright, J. M. Triscari

The exact N-particle ground-state wave function for a one-dimensional condensate of hard-core bosons in a harmonic trap is employed to obtain accurate numerical results for the one-particle density matrix, occupation number distribution of the natural orbitals, and momentum distribution. Our results show that the occupation of the lowest orbital varies as ${N}^{0.59},$ in contrast to ${N}^{0.5}$ for a spatially uniform system, and N for a true Bose-Einstein condensate.

Ground-state properties of hard-core bosons in one-dimensional harmonic traps

T. Papenbrock

The one-particle density matrices for hard-core bosons in a one-dimensional harmonic trap are computed numerically for systems with up to 160 bosons. Diagonalization of the density matrix shows that the many-body ground state is not Bose-Einstein condensed. The ground-state occupation, the amplitude of the lowest natural orbital, and the zero momentum peak height scale as powers of the particle number, and the corresponding exponents are related to each other. Close to its diagonal, the density matrix for hard-core bosons is similar to that of noninteracting fermions.
