Effective-action approach to a trapped Bose gas | | Emil Lundh

5 Sep 2002 | | Subject: | cond-mat | | Abstract: | The effective-action formalism is applied to a gas of bosons. The equations describing the condensate and the excitations are obtained using the loop expansion for the effective action. For a homogeneous gas the Beliaev expansion in terms of the diluteness parameter is identified in terms of the loop expansion. The loop expansion and the limits of validity of the well-known Bogoliubov and Popov equations are examined analytically for a homogeneous dilute Bose gas and numerically for a gas trapped in a harmonic-oscillator potential. The expansion to one-loop order, and hence the Bogoliubov equation, is shown to be valid for the zero-temperature trapped gas as long as the characteristic length of the trapping potential exceeds the s-wave scattering length. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0209121 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
