The critical temperature of a trapped, weakly interacting Bose gas

Description : We report on measurements of the critical temperature of aharmonically trapped, weakly interacting Bose gas as a function ofatom number. Our results exclude ideal-gas behavior by more thantwo standard deviations, and agree quantitatively with mean-fieldtheory. At our level of sensitivity, we find no...
