| contents | A quantitative quantum field approach with non-local order parameters is presented for a very weakly interacting, dilute Bose gas. Within the presented model, which assumes the constraint of particle number conservation at constant average energy in the canonical ensemble, it is shown that both coherent oscillations, as well as decay times of quantum coherence for the forward and backward propagating components of the quantum field created by the atomic cloud of a very weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate, are defined by a unique time variable. Within the present numerical theory, a quantitative estimate for the unit time scale for time propagation of a particle in a very weakly interacting Bose gas is derived from the coherence time of the wave field and it is illustrated that this time scale defines a unit time for transitions between different realizations of the Boltzmann equilibrium as defined by the maximum entropy from the vanishing of the chemical potential. |
