Multiple phases occurring in a Bose gas with finite-range interaction are investigated [2]. In the vicinity of the onset
of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC), the chemical potential and the pressure show a van der Waals-like behavior
indicating a first-order phase transition for weak interactions like Hartree-Fock or Popov
approximation. However, for
strong interactions there remains a multivalued region for the
T-matrix approximation even after the Maxwell
construction, which is interpreted as a density hysteresis [1]. This unified treatment of normal and condensed phases
becomes possible due to the recently found scheme to eliminate self-interactions in the T-matrix approximation,
which allows one to calculate properties below and above the critical temperature [3,4].
