19. by fitting a numerical simulation of the dissipative Gross-Pitaevskii equation with the experimental data on collective excitation by M.-O. Mewes et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 988 (1996). Collisions between condensate and noncondensate atoms might cause dissipation. A detailed analysis of this will be reported elsewhere.
