DESCRIPTION:Thermodynamics of the unitary Bose gas from first principles\nT
 ommaso Comparin (LPS-ENS\, Paris)\nUltracold atomic gases offer access to 
 a broad class of quantum systems. The strength of interatomic interactions
 \, in particular\, may be tuned across a wide range\, through the Feshbach
 -resonance technique. In this talk\, I consider a gas of bosonic atoms in 
 the unitary limit\, where the scattering length is infinite. For three bos
 ons\, unitary interactions lead to the Efimov effect\, consisting in an in
 finite sequence of scale-invariant three-body bound states. The Efimov sce
 nario (predicted in nuclear physics in the 1970s\, and first observed in 2
 006 with ultracold atoms) is correctly described through a model with zero
 -range two-body interactions and a hard-core three-body repulsion. We use 
 this model to describe a many-body system of unitary bosons\, which we stu
 dy through a dedicated path-integral quantum Monte Carlo algorithm. At the
 rmal equilibrium\, the phase diagram of the system includes the normal-gas
  phase at high temperature and two low-temperature phases: The Efimov liqu
 id and the Bose-Einstein condensate. We determine the critical temperature
  for Bose-Einstein condensation\, which is found to be 10% smaller than fo
 r non-interacting bosons. We also compute the momentum distribution of the
  gas\, and compare it with available experimental results which are part o
 f the current effort towards the realization of a degenerate unitary Bose 
 gas.\n\nReference: T. Comparin and W. Krauth\, Phys. Rev. Lett. 117\, 2253
