Time-dependent entropy of a cooling Bose gas

Abstract

Exact analytic solutions of a nonlinear boson diffusion equation with suitable initial conditions that account for evaporative cooling of ultracold atoms, plus boundary conditions at the singularity $\epsilon =\mu <0$ are presented, and used to calculate the time-dependent entropy of a cold quantum gas.
