Bose-Einstein-condensed gases with arbitrary strong interactions

Bose-condensed gases are considered with an effective interaction strength varying in the whole range of the values between zero and infinity. The consideration is based on the usage of a representative statistical ensemble for Bose systems with broken global gauge symmetry. Practical calculations are illustrated for a uniform Bose gas at zero temperature, employing a self-consistent mean-field theory, which is both conserving and gapless.Comment: Latex file, 23 pages, 4 figure

Non-perturbative solutions in the electro-weak theory with tˉt\bar t t condensate and the tt-quark mass

We apply Bogoliubov compensation principle to the gauge electro-weak interaction to demonstrate a spontaneous generation of anomalous three-boson gauge invariant effective interaction. The non-trivial solution of compensation equations uniquely defines the form-factor of the anomalous interaction and parameters of the theory including value of gauge electro-weak coupling $g(M_W^2)$ in satisfactory agreement with its experimental value. A possibility of spontaneous generation of effective four-fermion interaction of heavy quarks is also demonstrated. This interaction defines an equation for a scalar bound state of heavy quarks which serve as a substitute for the elementary scalar Higgs doublet. As a result we calculate the $t$-quark mass $m_t\,=\,177\,GeV$ in satisfactory agreement with the experimental value. The results strongly support idea of $\bar t\,t$ condensate as a source of the electro-weak symmetry breaking.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial overlap with arXiv:1103.395

CDF Wjj anomaly as a non-perturbative effect of the electro-weak interaction

The recently reported CDF excess at $120\,-\, 160\,GeV$ in invariant mass distribution of jet pairs accompanying $W$-boson is tentatively interpreted as a bound state of two $W$ decaying to quark-anti-quark pair. Non-perturbative effects of EW interaction obtained by application of Bogoliubov compensation approach lead to such bound state due to existence of anomalous three-boson gauge-invariant effective interaction. The application of this scheme gives satisfactory agreement with existing data without any adjusting parameter but the bound state mass $145\,GeV$.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure

Finite temperature effects in light scattering off Cooper-paired Fermi atoms

We study stimulated light scattering off a superfluid Fermi gas of atoms at finite temperature. We derive response function that takes into account vertex correction due to final state interactions; and analyze finite temperature effects on collective and quasiparticle excitations of a uniform superfluid Fermi gas. Light polarization is shown to play an important role in excitations. Our results suggest that it is possible to excite Bogoliubov-Anderson phonon at a large scattering length by light scattering.Comment: 18 pages, 4 figures, Accepted in J. Phys. B: At. Mol. & Opt.

Gapless Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov Approximation for Bose Gases

A dilute Bose system with Bose-Einstein condensate is considered. It is shown that the Hartree-Fock-Bogolubov approximation can be made both conserving as well as gapless. This is achieved by taking into account all physical normalization conditions, that is, the normalization condition for the condensed particles and that for the total number of particles. Two Lagrange multipliers, introduced for preserving these normalization conditions, make the consideration completely self-consistent.Comment: Latex file, 22 pages, 2 figure

Microscopic calculation of 240Pu scission with a finite-range effective force

Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations of hot fission in $^{240}\textrm{Pu}$ have been performed with a newly-implemented code that uses the D1S finite-range effective interaction. The hot-scission line is identified in the quadrupole-octupole-moment coordinate space. Fission-fragment shapes are extracted from the calculations. A benchmark calculation for $^{226}\textrm{Th}$ is obtained and compared to results in the literature. In addition, technical aspects of the use of HFB calculations for fission studies are examined in detail. In particular, the identification of scission configurations, the sensitivity of near-scission calculations to the choice of collective coordinates in the HFB iterations, and the formalism for the adjustment of collective-variable constraints are discussed. The power of the constraint-adjustment algorithm is illustrated with calculations near the critical scission configurations with up to seven simultaneous constraints.Comment: 18 pages, 24 figures, to be published in Physical Review

Stability of quasi-two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates with dominant dipole-dipole interactions

We consider quasi-two-dimensional atomic/molecular Bose-Einstein condensates with both contact and dipole-dipole interactions. It is shown that, as a consequence of the dimensional reduction, and within mean-field theory, the condensates do not develop unstable excitation spectra, even when the dipole-dipole interaction completely dominates the contact interaction.Comment: 4 pages of RevTex4, 3 figures; Rapid Communication in Physical Review A (to be published

Coupling running through the Looking-Glass of dimensional Reduction

The dimensional reduction, in a form of transition from four to two dimensions, was used in the 90s in a context of HE Regge scattering. Recently, it got a new impetus in quantum gravity where it opens the way to renormalizability and finite short-distance behavior. We consider a QFT model $g\,\varphi^4\,$ with running coupling defined in both the two domains of different dimensionality; the \gbar(Q^2)\, evolutions being duly conjugated at the reduction scale $\,Q\sim M.$ Beyond this scale, in the deep UV 2-dim region, the running coupling does not increase any more. Instead, it {\it slightly decreases} and tends to a finite value \gbar_2(\infty) \,< \, \gbar_2(M^2)\, from above. As a result, the global evolution picture looks quite peculiar and can propose a base for the modified scenario of gauge couplings behavior with UV fixed points provided by dimensional reduction instead of leptoquarks.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures,Version to match the one which (besides the Appendix) will appear in "Particles and Nuclei (PEPAN), Letters", v.7, No 6(162) 2010 pp 625-631.

Nonequilibrium Fock space for the electron transport problem

Based on the formalism of thermo field dynamics we propose a concept of nonequilibrium Fock space and nonequilibrium quasiparticles for quantum many-body system in nonequilibrium steady state. We develop a general theory as well as demonstrate the utility of the approach on the example of electron transport through the interacting region. The proposed approach is compatible with advanced methods of electronic structure calculations such as coupled cluster theory and configuration interaction

Subgap features due to quasiparticle tunneling in quantum dots coupled to superconducting leads

We present a microscopic theory of transport through quantum dot set-ups coupled to superconducting leads. We derive a master equation for the reduced density matrix to lowest order in the tunneling Hamiltonian and focus on quasiparticle tunneling. For high enough temperatures transport occurs in the subgap region due to thermally excited quasiparticles, which can be used to observe excited states of the system for low bias voltages. On the example of a double quantum dot we show how subgap transport spectroscopy can be done. Moreover, we use the single level quantum dot coupled to a normal and a superconducting lead to give a possible explanation for the subgap features observed in the experiments published in Appl. Phys. Lett. 95, 192103 (2009).Comment: 18 pages, 20 figures, revised according to published versio
