Images of a Bose-Einstein condensate at finite temperature

Abstract

A condensate initially prepared at finite temperature evolves under external time-dependent perturbation into a time-dependent mixed state. In these notes I use number-conserving time-dependent Bogoliubov theory to derive probability distribution for different outcomes of density measurement on the time-dependent excited state.
