Abstract: We study the collapse dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate subjected to a sudden change of the scattering length to a negative value by adopting the self-consistent Gaussian state theory for mixed states. Compared to the Gross-Pitaevskii and the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approaches, both fluctuations and three-body loss are properly treated in our theory. We find a new type of collapse assisted by fluctuations which amplify the attractive interaction between atoms. Moreover, the calculation of the fluctuated atoms, the entropy, and the second-order correlation function showed that the collapsed gas was significantly deviated from a pure state.
