Generalized mean-field approach to a resonant Bose-Fermi mixture

Daniele C. E. Bortolotti, А. V. Avdeenkov, John L. Bohn

We formulate a generalized mean-field theory of a mixture of fermionic and bosonic atoms, in which the fermion-boson interaction can be controlled by a Feshbach resonance. The theory correctly accounts for molecular binding energies of the molecules in the two-body limit, in contrast to the most straightforward mean-field theory. Using this theory, we discuss the equilibrium properties of fermionic molecules created from atom pairs in the gas. We also address the formation of molecules when the magnetic field is ramped across the resonance, and we present a simple Landau-Zener result for this process.

Feshbach Resonances in Ultracold Bose-Fermi Mixtures

Daniele C. E. Bortolotti

In the wake of successful experiments in Fermi condensates, experimental attention is broadening to include resonant interactions in degenerate Bose-Fermi mixtures. In this thesis we wish to study the equilibrium properties of the fermionic molecules that can be created in such a mixture. To this end, we first discuss the two body properties of the system, and introduce the model Hamiltonian we use to describe the resonant physics, highlighting its virtues, as well as its limitations. We then proceed by analyzing the mean field solution of this model, by studying both the equilibrium problem, and the non-equilibrium equations of motion, thus developing a powerful language to discuss the system. We then highlight the limitations of the mean-field approach, and develop a numerically tractable generalized version of this theory, which is able to correctly describe the two-body properties of the system in the low-density limit. Finally, we study the properties of the system using this generalized mean-field theory, by first analyzing the two-body scattering matrix in the many-body environment, assessing its complex poles in order to understand the stability properties of the Feshbach molecules in the gas. Secondly we solve the equilibrium equations self-consistently, to study the molecular populations and density distributions at equilibrium, as a function of external bias magnetic field.

Quantum phases of Bose–Fermi mixtures in optical lattices

K Noda, Robert Peters, N. Kawakami +1 more

We consider a mixture of interacting bosons and fermions in optical lattices described by the Bose–Fermi Hubbard Hamiltonian. To treat bosonic degrees of freedom, we use a generalized dynamical mean field theory (GDMFT). By combining the GDMFT with the numerical renormalization group method, we revisit the zero-temperature phase diagram with particular emphasis on many-body effects in a supersolid state and discuss the origin of an anomalous peak structure emerging in the density of states for fermions.
