Xx. Yi et Jc. Su, DENSITY PROFILE OF THE ATOMIC BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATION, Journal of physics. A, mathematical and general, 30(10), 1997, pp. 3497-3503
We study the density profile and the dynamics of atoms interacting wit
h the quantized radiation field in a trap. The density profile is eval
uated by using the Bogoliubov approximation. The calculated mean numbe
r of atoms at zero temperature appears to be a function of time which
shows a damped oscillation. The shape of the lines for the light scatt
ered from Bose-Einstein condensates are also discussed.
