The inclusion of the particle-interaction elucidates why thermodynamic calculations for BECs by the grand-canonical ensemble for the non-interacting case are in coincidence with up to date experimental results. However, in our generalized theory we can show that a BEC experiences a real and abrupt phase-transition in contrast to the smooth phase-transition predicted by the non-interacting grand-canonical ensemble. In addition, we discuss possible effects due to a thermal environment and the experimental probing from a general point of view.6 pages, two figuresStatistical Mechanicstext
