Abstract
An approximate hyperspherical many-body theory has been used to calculate the heat capacity and the condensate fraction of a BEC with effective repulsive interaction. The effect of interactions has been analysed and compared with the non-interacting case. It has been found that the repulsive interaction lowers the critical temperature from the value found in the non-interacting case. The difference between the critical temperatures increases with the increase in the total number of atoms in the trap.
