Bose-Einstein condensation in dilute atomic gases
The material presented here consists of lecture notes written for a five two-hour sections course given during the 2004 edition of the Brazilian School on Statistical Mechanics. The topics covered are 1. Bose-Einstein condensation of trapped ideal gases; 2. Effective two-body interactions and exact results in the Gross-Pitaevski limit; 3. Atomic structure effects, including "Feshbach resonances" and hybrid condensates; 4. Elementary excitations in the Bogoliubov approximation and beyond; and 5. Splitt traps, interference phenomena and condensate arrays.
