Abstract:The effective Lagrangian density function and the quantum fluctuation of the wave function in the form of quantized operators are presented for a quasi two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate by means of Madelung transformation. This paper calculates the two-point density-density correlation function of the condensate during its free expansion after its confinement potential is removed. Results show that the two-point density-density correlation function in the long-wave limit is proportional to the wave numb… Show more
