FINITE-TEMPERATURE CORRELATIONS IN THE ONE-DIMENSIONAL TRAPPED AND UNTRAPPED BOSE GASES: FUNCTIONAL INTEGRAL APPROACH

This preprint was accepted July 7, 2003

ABSTRACT:
We calculate the dynamic single-particle and many-particle
correlation functions at nonzero temperature in
one-dimensional trapped repulsive Bose gases. The decay for
increasing distance between the points of these correlation
functions is governed by a scaling exponent that has a
universal expression in terms of observed quantities. This
expression is valid in the weak-interaction
Gross--Pitaevskii as well as in the strong-interaction 
Girardeau-Tonks limit, but the observed quantities involved
depend on the interaction strength. The confining trap
introduces a weak center-of-mass dependence in the scaling
exponent. We also conjecture results for the
density-density correlation function.
