Roles of Collective Excitations in the Anomalous Fluctuations of One-Dimensional Interacting Bose-Condensed Gases
-
Abstract
The particle-number fluctuations due to collective excitations are calculated for a one-dimensional interacting Bose-condensed gas confined in a harmonic potential. By using the Thomas-Fermi
approximation, the behaviour of the anomalous fluctuations is found to be <δ2N0> ~ N10/3/( ln N)2 with N being the total number of particles.
