On the critical temperature in a Boson-Fermion mixture with attraction between the components

The dependence of the critical temperature shift in the Bose component of a degenerate Bose-Fermi gas mixture in a harmonic trap on the number of bosons and fermions has been obtained on the basis of the effective Hamiltonian of the Bose subsystem. The presence of the Fermi component leads to a qualitatively new behavior of the shift, as compared to the case of a single interacting Bose gas in the trap. Namely, the T _c(N) dependence has a different curvature in the presence of the Fermi component.
