Equivalence of macro- (Van der waals) and micro- (quantum) phase-transitions: consequences for BEC, antihydrogen and generic chiral symmetry breaking

The internal microscopic phase transition in atom H described with a Hund-type Mexican hat potential is analytically congruent with the macroscopic phase transitions between states of aggregation, described with classical Van der waals-Maxwell binodals and spinodals. This means the UEOS (universal e...

Sumario:The internal microscopic phase transition in atom H described with a Hund-type Mexican hat potential is analytically congruent with the macroscopic phase transitions between states of aggregation, described with classical Van der waals-Maxwell binodals and spinodals. This means the UEOS (universal equation of state) exists and is valid for any phase transition in any system. A universal chiral symmetry breaking mechanism applies to BEC, where the de Broglie length is important. We show quantitatively that his standing wave equation leads to the equivalence of macro- and microscopic phase transitions, due to natural chiral symmetry breaking. The experimentally detected phase transition in the so-called simple Coulomb electron-proton bond between the 2 enantiomers H and antiH is the generic prototype.
