Quantum dilute droplets of dipolar bosons at finite temperature

We systematically study the properties of dipolar Bose gases with two- and three-body contact interactions at finite temperature using the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov-Popov approximation. In uniform case, we obtain an exciting new extension of the seminal Lee-Huang-Yang corrected equation of state that depends explicitly on the thermal fluctuations and on the coupling constant of the three-body interaction. We investigate, on the other hand, the effects of thermal fluctuations on the occurrence and stability of a droplet state in a Bose-Einstein condensate with strong dipole-dipole interactions. We find that at finite temperature, the droplet phase appears as a narrow peak surrounded by a broader thermal halo. We show that the number of particles inside the droplet decays with increasing temperature.
