Condensates and correlated boson systems

Abstract

We study two-body correlations in a many-boson system with a hyperspherical approach, where we can use arbitrary scattering length and include two-body bound states. As a special application we look on Bose-Einstein condensation and calculate the stability criterium in a comparison with the experimental criterium and the theoretical criterium from the Gross-Pitaevskii equation.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures.
