The aim is to determine whether there is Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) below the critical temperature, T_c = 200 mK where a superfluid density has been observed. Assuming BEC appears as a macroscopic occupation of the k = 0 state below T_c, we find a condensate fraction of n_0 = (-0.10 pm 1.20)% at T = 80 mK and n_0 = (0.08pm0.78)% at T = 120 mK, consistent with zero. The shape of n(k) also does not change on crossing T_c within measurement precision. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0702347 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
