Since the dynamics of the noncondensate cloud is also taken into account, the theory satisfies the Kohn theorem. The spectrum turns out to be strongly temperature dependent and we compare our results with experiment.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1998-07-03T13:11:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.75.Fi", "42.50.Vk", "67.40.-w", "32.80.Pj" ], "keywords": [ "trapped bose gas", "collisionless modes", "non-linear schroedinger equation", "quadrupole modes", "excitation frequencies" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevA.60.3973" }, "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 868405 } } }
