Interacting excitations in a Bose fluid

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

Within the Bogoliubov-Zubarev formalism we develop a graphical perturbation theory of a Bose fluid for finite temperatures. We derive the quasiparticle lifetime and a Boltzmann equation for excitations, restricting ourselves to lowest order perturbation theory. All results are expressed in terms of the parameterλ 2, occuring in the Bogoliubov-Zubarev formalism, which in lowest order is equal to the liquid structure factor at zero temperature.
