Ground state of a homogeneous Bose gas of hard spheres
Abstract
The ground state of a homogeneous Bose gas of hard spheres is treated in self-consistent mean-field theory. It is shown that this approach provides an accurate description of the ground state of a Bose-Einstein condensed gas for arbitrarily strong interactions. The results are in good agreement with Monte Carlo numerical calculations. Since all other mean-field approximations are valid only for very small gas parameters, the present self-consistent theory is a unique mean-field approach allowing for an accurate description of Bose systems at arbitrary values of the gas parameter.
