Jan Dereziński: Decay of phonons in Bose gas
Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU Munich), Room A 027 Theresienstr. 37, Munich, GermanyInteracting Bose gas at zero temperature is often described by the Bogoliubov approximation. It involves quasiparticles, called phonons, with a rather curious dispersion relation responsible for superfluidity. The Fermi Golden Rule predicts that the lifetime of phonons is proportional to the 5th inverse power of momentum. This was first computed by Beliaev and goes under […]
