Abstract

We use the quantum kinetic theory to calculate the steady state and fluctuations of a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate at a finite temperature. The system is divided in a condensate and a noncondensate part. A quantum-mechanical description based on the number-conserving Bogoliubov method is used for describing the condensate part. The noncondensed particles are treated as a classical gas in thermal equilibrium with temperature $T$ and chemical potential $\ensuremath{\mu}$. We find a master equation for the reduced density operator of the Bose-Einstein condensate, calculate the steady state of the system, and investigate the effect of one-, two-, and three-particle losses on the condensate. Using linearized Ito equations, we find expressions for the intensity fluctuations and the amplitude fluctuations in the condensate. A Lorentzian line shape is found for the intensity correlation function that is characterized by a time constant ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{I}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ derived in the paper. For the amplitude correlation function, we find ballistic behavior for time differences smaller than ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{I}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$, and diffusive behavior for larger time differences.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
