    "abstract": "Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in a gas has now been achieved. Alkali atoms\n($^{87}Rb$, $^{23}Na$ and $^{7}Li$) have been cooled to the point of\ncondensation (temperature of 100 nK) using laser cooling and trapping, followed\nby magnetic trapping and evaporative cooling. This important experimental\nresult has also renewed the interest on theoretical studies of BEC. In this\ncontribution we discuss the statistical mechanics of the trapped BEC at zero\ntemperature. In particular, we study the stability of the condensate by using a\nvariational method with local and non-local interaction between the particles.",
