The thermodynamic properties of an ideal q-boson gas trapped in an n-dimensional harmonic potential are studied, based on the distribution function of q-bosons. The critical temperature Tc,q of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) and the heat capacity C of the system are derived analytically. It is shown that for the q-boson gas trapped in a harmonic potential, BEC may occur in any dimension when q ≠ 1, the critical temperature is always higher than that of an ordinary Bose gas (q = 1), and the heat capacity is continuous at Tc,q for a one-dimensional system but discontinuous at Tc,q for a two- or multi-dimensional system.

We propose a model that includes itinerant and localized states to study Bose–Einstein condensation of ultracold atoms in optical lattices (Bose–Anderson model). It is found that the original itinerant and localized states intermix to give rise to a new energy band structure with two quasiparticle energy bands. We have computed the critical temperature Tc of the Bose–Einstein condensation of the quasiparticles in the Bose–Anderson model using our newly developed numerical algorithm and found that Tc increases as na3 (the number density times the lattice constant cubed) increases according to the power law Tc≈18.93(na3)0.59 nK for na3<0.125 and according to the linear relation Tc≈8.75+10.53na3 nK for 1.25<na3<12.5 for the given model parameters. With the self-consistent equations for the condensation fractions obtained within the Bogoliubov mean-field approximation, the effects of the on-site repulsion U on the quasiparticle condensation are investigated. We have found that, for values up to several times the zeroth-order critical temperature, U enhances the zeroth-order condensation fraction at intermediate temperatures and effectively raises the critical temperature, while it slightly suppresses the zeroth-order condensation fraction at very low temperatures.

The new generalized Bose–Einstein condensation (GBEC) quantum-statistical theory starts from a noninteracting ternary boson-fermion (BF) gas of two-hole Cooper pairs (2hCPs) along with the usual two-electron Cooper pairs (2eCPs) plus unpaired electrons. Here we obtain the entropy and heat capacity and confirm once again that GBEC contains as a special case the Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer (BCS) theory. The energy gap is first calculated and compared with that of BCS theory for different values of a new dimensionless coupling parameter n/n[Formula: see text] where n is the total electron number density and n[Formula: see text] that of unpaired electrons at zero absolute temperature. Then, from the entropy, the heat capacity is calculated. Results compare well with elemental-superconductor data suggesting that 2hCPs are indispensable to describe superconductors (SCs).

This study investigates the possibility of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in 2D-nanoclusters. A ground state equilibrium structure involves the single phonon exchange approximation. At critical temperature, the specific heat, entropy, and free energy of the system can be determined. The results support the existence of BEC in nanoclusters, and they lead to predictions of the behaviour of 2Dmaterials at low temperatures.

We investigate Bose-Einstein condensation of a gas of non-interacting Bose particles moving in the background of a periodic lattice of delta functions. In the one-dimensional case, where one has no condensation in the free case, we showed that this property persist also in the presence of the lattice. In addition we formulated some conditions on the spectral functions which would allow for condensation.
