Critical Behaviour of a Homogeneous Bose Gas at Finite Temperature

Abstract

A homogeneous non-relativistic Bose gas is investigated at finite temperature using renormalization group methods. The phase transition is shown to be second order and the effective chemical potential and the effective quartic coupling vanish at the critical temperature. We obtain the critical exponent $ν=0.73$ at leading order in the derivative expansion.

Application of renormalization-group techniques to a homogeneous Bose gas at finite temperature

Jens O. Andersen, Michael T. Strickland

A homogeneous Bose gas is investigated at finite temperature using renormalization-group techniques. A nonperturbative flow equation for the effective potential is derived using sharp and smooth cutoff functions. Numerical solutions of these equations show that the system undergoes a second-order phase transition in accordance with universality arguments. We obtain the critical exponent $\ensuremath{\nu}=0.73.$

Quantum criticality of the imperfect Bose gas inddimensions

Paweł Jakubczyk, M Napiórkowski

We study the low-temperature limit of the d -dimensional imperfect Bose gas. Relying on an exact analysis of the microscopic model, we establish the existence of a second-order quantum phase transition to a phase involving the Bose–Einstein condensate. The transition is triggered by varying the chemical potential and persists at non-zero temperatures T for d > 2. We extract the exact phase diagram and identify the scaling regimes in the vicinity of the quantum-critical point focusing on the behavior of the correlation length ξ. The length ξ develops an essential singularity exclusively for d = 2. We follow the evolution of the phase diagram varying d . For d > 2 our results agree with renormalization-group-based analysis of the effective bosonic order-parameter models with the dynamical exponent z = 2.

Three-dimensional dilute Bose liquid at finite temperature: a Renormalization Group approach

M. Crişan, Marina Bianca Trif, I. Grosu +1 more

We consider the influence of temperature on the critical behavior of a weakly interacting three dimensional Bose system. Using the flow equations of the Renormalization Group and a Φ4 model with dynamical critical exponent z = 2, we calculated the critical exponent ν, and the thermodynamical parameters near the critical temperature, taking in consideration the quantum effects. The quantum effects considered using this method gives for ν the value 0.75, which is close to the value 0.73 obtained by the polynomial method. The critical temperature shift ΔT c was obtained, in the lowest-order approximation, and turns out to be proportional to the scattering length.

Thermodynamics of a Weakly Interacting Bose-Einstein Gas

Tor Haugset, Hårek Haugerud, F. Ravndal

Abstract: The one-loop effective potential for non-relativistic bosons with a delta function repulsive potential is calculated for a given chemical potential using functional methods. After renormalization and at zero temperature it reproduces the standard ground state energy and pressure as function of the particle density. At finite temperatures it is found necessary to include ring corrections to the one-loop result in order to satisfy the Goldstone theorem. It is natural to introduce an effective chemical potential directly related to the order parameter and which uniformly decreases with increasing temperatures. This is in contrast to the the ordinary chemical potential which peaks at the critical temperature. The resulting thermodynamics in the condensed phase at very low temperatures is found to be the same as in the Bogoliubov approximation where the degrees of freedom are given by the Goldstone bosons. At higher temperatures the ring corrections dominate and result in a critical temperature unaffected by the interaction. 1

Gaussian approximation to the condensation of the interacting Bose gas

Anna Okopińska

The effective action formalism of quantum field theory is used to study the properties of the non-relativistic interacting Bose gas. The Gaussian approximation is formulated by calculating the effective action to the first order of the optimized expansion. In the homogeneous limit the method respects the Hughenholz-Pines theorem, leading to the gapless spectrum both for excitations and for density fluctuations. Renormalization is carried out by adopting dimensional regularization. The results for critical temperature are compared with that obtained in the loop expansion.

Theory of the weakly interacting Bose gas

Jens O. Andersen

This article reviews recent advances in the theory of the three-dimensional dilute homogeneous Bose gas at zero and finite temperature. Effective-field-theory methods are used to formulate a systematic perturbative framework that can be used to calculate the properties of a system at $T=0.$ The perturbative expansion of these properties is essentially an expansion in the gas parameter $\sqrt{{\mathrm{na}}^{3}},$ where $a$ is the $s$-wave scattering length and $n$ is the number density. In particular, the leading quantum corrections to the ground-state energy density, the condensate depletion, and long-wavelength collective excitations are rederived in an efficient and economical manner. Nonuniversal effects are also discussed. These effects are higher-order corrections that depend on properties of the interatomic potential other than the scattering length, such as the effective range. The article critically examines various approaches to the dilute Bose gas in equilibrium at finite temperature. These include the Bogoliubov approximation, the Popov approximation, the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approximation, the \ensuremath{\Phi}-derivable approach, optimized perturbation theory, and renormalization-group techniques. The article ends with a look at recent calculations of the critical temperature of the dilute Bose gas, which include $1/N$ techniques, lattice simulations, self-consistent calculations, and variational perturbation theory.
