Visco-elastic spectra of a dilute Bose fluid

Statistical Mechanics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

A recently developed local-density current functional formalism for confined Bose-condensed superfluids requires visco-elastic spectra which are defined through a finite-frequency extension of the dissipative coefficients entering the linearized hydrodynamic equations of the two-fluid model. We evaluate these spectra for a superfluid with contact interactions in the collisionless regime at finite temperature, by working to first order beyond the Bogolubov approximation. We find that within this approximation all the visco-elastic spectra take the same value aside from simple multiplicative factors.
