Universal relations of strongly interacting Fermi gases with multiple scattering channels

Ran Qi

Universal relations are important for understanding strongly interacting Fermi gases, the study of which have been mostly limited to cases with a single scattering channel. Here we discover a series universal relations for strongly interacting Fermi gases with multiple scattering channels. Unlike its counterpart across a single channel wide magnetic Feshbach resonance, a new kind of contact which we call the cross-channel contact naturally appears in this system, this contact is related to varies thermodynamic quantities as well as short range correlation functions.

Universal contact of strongly interacting fermions at finite temperatures

Hui Hu, Xia-Ji Liu, P. D. Drummond

The recently discovered universal thermodynamic behavior of dilute, strongly interacting Fermi gases also implies a universal structure in the many-body pair-correlation function at short distances, as quantified by the contact . Here, we theoretically calculate the temperature dependence of this universal contact for a Fermi gas in free space and in a harmonic trap. At high temperatures above the Fermi degeneracy temperature, T ≳ T F , we obtain a reliable non-perturbative quantum virial expansion up to third order. At low temperatures, we compare different approximate strong-coupling theories. These make different predictions, which need to be tested either by future experiments or by advanced quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We conjecture that in the universal unitarity limit, the contact or correlation decreases monotonically with increasing temperature, unless the temperature is significantly lower than the critical temperature, T ≪ T c ∼0.2 T F . We also discuss briefly how to measure the universal contact in either homogeneous or harmonically trapped Fermi gases.

Temperature Dependence of the Universal Contact Parameter in a Unitary Fermi Gas

E. D. Kuhnle, Sascha Hoinka, Paul Dyke +3 more

The contact I, introduced by Tan, has emerged as a key parameter characterizing universal properties of strongly interacting Fermi gases. For ultracold Fermi gases near a Feshbach resonance, the contact depends upon two quantities: the interaction parameter 1/(k(F)a), where k(F) is the Fermi wave vector and a is the s-wave scattering length, and the temperature T/T(F), where T(F) is the Fermi temperature. We present the first measurements of the temperature dependence of the contact in a unitary Fermi gas using Bragg spectroscopy. The contact is seen to follow the predicted decay with temperature and shows how pair-correlations at high momentum persist well above the superfluid transition temperature.
