We study the thermodynamic properties and the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) for a finite num-ber N of identical non-interacting bosons in the field of a deep symmetric double-well potential (SDWP). The temperature dependence of the heat capacity C(T) at low temperatures is analyzed, and we derive several generic results which are valid when the energy difference between the first two excited states is sufficiently large. We also investigate numerically the properties of non-interacting bosons in three-dimensional superpositions of deep quartic SDWP's. At low temperatures, we find that C(T) displays microstructures which are sensitive to the value of N and the thermal variation of the condensate frac-tion shows a characteristic plateau. The origin of these features is discussed, and some general conclu-sions are drawn.
We study strong interaction effects in a one-dimensional (1D) Boson gas across a narrow confinement induced resonance (CIR). In contrast to the zero range potential, the 1D two-body interaction in the narrow CIR can be written as a polynomial of derivative
δ-function interaction on many-body level. Using the asymptotic Bethe ansatz, we find that the low energy physics of this many-body problem is described by the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid where the Luttinger parameters are essentially modified by an effective finite range parameter
v. This parameter drastically alters quantum criticality and universal thermodynamics of the gas. In particular, it drives the Tonks-Girardeau (TG) gas from non-mutual Fermi statistics to mutual statistics or to a more exclusive super TG gas. This novel feature is further discussed in terms of the breathing mode which is experimentally measurable.
