23 Jun 2006 | | Subject: | Other; Statistical Mechanics | | Abstract: | The dependence of the three lowest order spatial correlation functions of a harmonically confined Bose gas on temperature and interaction strength is presented at equilibrium. Our analysis is based on a stochastic Langevin equation for the order parameter of a weakly-interacting gas. Comparison of the predicted first order correlation functions to those of appropriate mean field theories demonstrates the potentially crucial role of density fluctuations on the equilibrium coherence length. Furthermore,the change in both coherence length and shape of the correlation function, from gaussian to exponential, with increasing temperature is quantified. Moreover, the presented results for higher order correlation functions are shown to be in agreeement with existing predictions. Appropriate consideration of density-density correlations is shown to facilitate a precise determination of quasi-condensate density profiles, providing an alternative approach to the bimodal density fits typically used experimentally. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0606617 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
