Calculation of the microcanonical temperature for the classical Bose field
Matthew J. Davis, P. Blair Blakie
The ergodic hypothesis asserts that a classical mechanical system will in time visit every available configuration in phase space. Thus, for an ergodic system, an ensemble average…
Critical temperature of a trapped Bose gas: comparison of theory and experiment
Matthew J. Davis, P. Blair Blakie
We apply the Projected Gross-Pitaevskii equation (PGPE) formalism to the experimental problem of the shift in critical temperature of a harmonically confined Bose gas as repo…
Raman Spectroscopy of Mott insulator states in optical lattices
P. Blair Blakie
We propose and analyse a Raman spectroscopy technique for probing the properties of quantum degenerate bosons in the ground band of an optical lattice. Our formalism describes exci…
A Finite Temperature Treatment of Ultracold Atoms in a 1-D Optical Lattice
B. G. Wild, P. B. Blakie, D. A. W. Hutchinson
We consider the effects of temperature upon the superfluid phase of ultracold, weakly interacting bosons in a one dimensional optical lattice. We use a finite temperature treatment…
