Theory of interacting quantum cases

Abstract

We present a unified picture of the interaction effects in dilute atomic quantum gases. We consider fermionic as well as bosonic gases and, in particular, discuss for both forms of statistics the fundamental differences between a gas with effectively repulsive and a gas with effectively attractive inter atomic interactions, i.e., between a gas with either a positive or a negative scattering length.

Interacting Fermi Gases and the BCS–BEC Crossover

Лев П. Питаевский, S. Stringari

Abstract This is the first of a series of chapters devoted to interacting Fermi gases, with special focus here on the effects of superfluidity. It starts with a brief discussion of the ideal Fermi gas and then focuses on the properties of dilute interacting Fermi gases. Topics include the weakly repulsive Fermi gas; the gas of composite bosons; the BCS limit of a weakly interacting Fermi gas; the strongly interacting, but still dilute, unitary Fermi gas where the scattering length is much larger than the average interatomic distance; the BCS–BEC crossover; and the Bogoliubov–de Gennes approach. A discussion of the main physical quantities predicted by mean-field theory and by quantum Monte Carlo simulations, including, in particular, the equation of state, the momentum distribution, and the condensation of pairs, is also presented.

Tunable high-temperature thermodynamics of weakly interacting dipolar gases

K. M. Daily, D. Blume

We consider dilute gases of dipolar bosons or fermions in the high-temperature limit in a spherically symmetric harmonic trapping potential. We examine the system using a virial expansion up to second order in the fugacity. Using the Born approximation and assuming purely dipolar interactions, we find that the second-order virial coefficient for both bosons and fermions depends quadratically on the dipole length and is negative at high temperatures, indicating that to lowest order in the dipole-dipole interactions the dipolar single-component quantum gases are repulsive. If the $s$-wave scattering length for the bosonic system is tunable and its absolute value is made small, then the $s$-wave interactions dominate and the dipolar gas behaves like a weakly interacting Bose gas with isotropic $s$-wave interactions. If the generalized scattering lengths for the fermionic system are tunable, then the dipole length can enter linearly in the virial equation of state, enhancing the dipole-dipole effects in the thermodynamic observables.

Interactions in quantum fluids

Thierry Giamarchi

In these notes I review the basic concepts of the effects of interactions on quantum particles. I focuss here mostly on the case of fermions, but several aspects of interacting bosons are mentioned as well. These notes have been voluntarily kept at an elementary level and should be suitable for students wanting to enter this field. I review the concept of Fermi liquid, and then move to a description of the interaction effects, as well as the main models that are used to tackle these questions. Finally I study the case of one dimensional interacting particles that constitutes a fascinating special case.

Fermions at unitarity and Haldane exclusion statistics

R. K. Bhaduri, M. V. N. Murthy, M. K. Srivastava

PACS. 05.30.-d – Quantum statistical mechanics. Abstract. – We consider a gas of neutral fermionic atoms at ultra-low temperatures, with the attractive interaction tuned to Feshbach resonance. We calculate, the variation of the chemical potential and the energy per particle as a function of temperature by assuming the system to be an ideal gas obeying the Haldane-Wu fractional exclusion statistics. Our results for the untrapped gas compare favourably with the recently published Monte Carlo calculations of two groups. For a harmonically trapped gas, the results agree with experiment, and also with other published work. Consider a dilute gas of neutral fermionic atoms at a low temperature. In general, the low-energy properties of the gas are determined by the scattering length a, the number density n, and the temperature T of the gas ( the effective range r0 is small, so that r0/|a | → 0 as a becomes large). When the attractive interaction between the atoms is increased continuously by magnetic tuning from weak to strong, the scattering length a goes from a small negative to a small positive value. In between, there is a zero-energy two-body bound state, and |a|
