Condensate density in a shifted-parabola triplon model ($n_0=(\eta /\nu )[H-H_c(T)]$)

If the phenomenological single-density shift is continued into the condensed phase and the thermal population remains saturated at $n_T(T)$, the zero minimum requires $\nu [n_0+n_T]=\eta (H-H_g)$. At fixed temperature, $n_0=(\eta /\nu )[H-H_c(T)]$ above onset and zero below it. This prefactor belongs to that closure; a microscopic interaction model can distinguish normal and condensed self-energies. Continuing the normal parabola into negative energies without changing the state is not a consistent Bose distribution.
