Stochastic theory of thermal matter fields — •Holger Hauptmann1, Sigmund Heller1, Holger Kantz2, and Walter T. Strunz1 — 1Technische Universität Dresden — 2Max-Planck-Institut für Physik komplexer Systeme
We study quasi one-dimensional ultracold Bose gases with repulsive self interaction. A nonlinear stochastic matter-field equation of generalized Gross-Pitaevskii type will be presented to describe Bose gases in the canonical ensemble (fixed particle number). This might be a more realistic experimental scenario than the grand-canonical approach. Applications of this equation to simulate recent experiments from the Schmiedmayer group [1] will be shown, especially the emergence of correlations in quantum many-body systems. Moreover, results for equilibrium coherence properties of one-dimensional Bose gases will be presented.
