A detailed description of the statistical properties of a system of bosons in a harmonic trap at low temperature, which is expected to bear on the process of BE condensation, is given resorting only to the basic postulates of Gibbs and Bose, without assuming equipartition nor continuum statistics. Below Tc such discrete spectrum theory predicts for the thermo-dynamical variables a behavior different from the continuum case. In particular a new critical temperature Td emerges where the specific heat exhibits a λ-like spike.

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.

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.

In this paper, we endeavor to show that the phenomenon of Bose–Einstein condensation can take place at discrete temperatures lower than the known critical temperature value.

The emergence of quasiparticles in interacting matter represents one of the cornerstones of modern physics. However, in the vicinity of a quantum critical point, the existence of quasiparticles comes under question. Here, we created Bose polarons near quantum criticality by immersing atomic impurities in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) with near-resonant interactions. Using radiofrequency spectroscopy, we probed the energy, spectral width, and short-range correlations of the impurities as a function of temperature. Far below the superfluid critical temperature, the impurities formed well-defined quasiparticles. Their inverse lifetime, given by their spectral width, increased linearly with temperature at the so-called Planckian scale, consistent with quantum critical behavior. Close to the BEC critical temperature, the spectral width exceeded the impurity’s binding energy, signaling a breakdown of the quasiparticle picture.
