Hot Scalar Theory in Large N: Bose-Einstein Condensation
Abstract
I review the Bose-Einstein condensation phase transition of dilute gases of cold atoms, for particle theorists acquainted with methods of field theory at finite temperature. I then discuss how the dependence of the phase transition temperature on the interaction strength can be computed in the large N approximation.
