Comment on: rotational properties of trapped bosons

F. Brosens, J. T. Devreese, L. F. Lemmens

Based on the Hellman-Feynman theorem it is shown that the average square radius of a cloud of interacting bosons in a parabolic well can be derived from their free energy. As an ap…

The Partition Function of a Spinor Gas

L. F. Lemmens, F. Brosens, J. T. Devreese

For a spinor gas, i.e., a mixture of identical particles with several internal degrees of freedom, we derive the partition function in terms of the Feynman-Kac functionals of polar…

Condensation and interaction range in harmonic boson traps: a variational approach

J. Tempere, F. Brosens, L. F. Lemmens +1

For a gas of N bosons interacting through a two-body Morse potential a variational bound of the free energy of a confined system is obtained. The calculation method is based on the…

Statistical mechanics and path integrals for a finite number of bosons

L. F. Lemmens, F. Brosens, J. T. Devreese

Recent investigations show that the statistical mechanics of a finite number of particles in ideal harmonic systems predicts different results for the same physical properties, dep…

The many-body diffusion algorithm, harmonic fermions

F. Luczak, F. Brosens, J. T. Devreese +1

A numerical implementation scheme is presented for the recently developed many-body diffusion approach for identical particles, in the case of harmonic potentials. The procedure is…

Many-Body Diffusion and Path Integrals for Identical Particles

L. F. Lemmens, F. Brosens, J. T. Devreese

For distinguishable particles it is well known that Brownian motion and a Feynman-Kac functional can be used to calculate the path integral (for imaginary times) for a general clas…
