  We study the damping of low-lying collective excitations of condensates in a
weakly interacting Bose gas model within the framework of imaginary time path
integral. A general expression of the damping rate has been obtained in the low
momentum limit for both the very low temperature regime and the higher
temperature regime. For the latter, the result is new and applicable to recent
experiments. Theoretical predictions for the damping rate are compared with the
experimental values.
