Abstract

Using the Bogolyubov's rate equation from the theory of superfluidity the possibility of Bose condensation of phonons in biological systems and the validity of Fröhlich's hypothesis has been proved. We took into account both the third and the fourth anharmonism in the rate equation. All the processes with active phonons (from one to four) of biological active modes have been investigated. Taking into account these processes the expression for the chemical potential is shown to be changed, but the conditions for Bose condensation of phonons still exist. For the first time we point out the possibility of soliton wave packet propagation in the coherent systems of phonons and photons. The possibility of Bose condensation of excitons in biological systems is also discussed.

The possibility of the formation of a condensate with a finite absolute value of the momentum k0 in a strongly nonideal Bose system is considered. Such a condensate comes into existence when the one-particle spectrum of a normal system touches zero in the point ko # 0. The form of a correlation func
