Critical point of the two-dimensional Bose gas: an S-matrix approach

Abstract: A new treatment of the critical point of the two-dimensional interacting Bose gas is presented. In the lowest order approximation we obtain the critical temperature T_c ~ 2 pi n/[ m log (2pi/mg)], where n is the density, m the mass, and g the coupling. This result is based on a new formulation of interacting gases at finite density and temperature which is reminiscent of the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz in one dimension. In this formalism, the basic thermodynamic quantities are expressed in terms of a pseudo-energy. Consistent resummation of 2-body scattering leads to an integral equation for the pseudo-energy with a kernel based on the logarithm of the exact 2-body S-matrix.
