Bogoliubov quasiparticle (source code)

= Bogoliubov quasiparticle
{c}

A Bogoliubov <quasiparticle> is an excitation created by the diagonal mode operator obtained through a <Bogoliubov transformation>. Its vacuum can contain particles in the original modes because creation and <annihilation operators> mix. Examples include <antiferromagnetic spin waves>, Bose-gas <phonons> and paired-fermion excitations.
