Abstract: The critical temperature and the ground state fraction of weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensation in a harmonic potential trap are calculated with numerical method. The result indicates that both are decreasing with the scattering length increasing. But, there is only a difference about 0.4% between it and that of ideal case.

Key words: Bose-Einstein condensation, harmonic potential, critical temperature, ground-state fraction
