Quantum kinetic theory. V. Quantum kinetic master equation for mutual interaction of condensate and noncondensate
Abstract
A detailed quantum kinetic master equation is developed that couples the kinetics of a trapped condensate to the vapor of noncondensed particles. This generalizes previous work that treated the vapor as being undepleted.
