Dynamics of dark solitons in superfluid Fermi gases in the BCS-BEC crossover

Wen Wen, Guoxiang Huang

We study, both analytically and numerically, the formation and propagation of dark solitons in a superfluid Fermi gas in the crossover from Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superfluid to a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). Starting from a superfluid order-parameter equation, we derive a Korteweg--de Vries equation for weak nonlinear excitations under quasi-one-dimensional and long-wavelength approximations. We present dark soliton solutions valid for both BCS and BEC limits and also for the crossover, and show that dark solitons in different superfluid regimes possess different features. Particularly, a dark soliton in the BCS (BEC) regime has larger (smaller) propagating velocity and smaller (larger) spatial width. Upon moving to the boundary of the condensate, it generally decelerates and generates small radiations, which display different behavior in different superfluid regimes. We study also a head-on collision between two dark solitons and demonstrate that the phase shift due to the collision changes nonmonotonically along the BCS-BEC crossover. All analytical results are checked by numerical simulations, and good agreement between them is found.

Soliton-core filling in superfluid Fermi gases with spin imbalance

Giovanni Lombardi, Wout Van Alphen, Serghei N. Klimin +1 more

In this paper the properties of dark solitons in superfluid Fermi gases with spin imbalance are studied by means of a recently developed effective field theory [Eur. Phys. J. B 88, 122 (2015)] suitable to describe the BEC-BCS crossover in ultracold gases in an extended range of temperatures as compared to the usual Ginzburg--Landau treatments. The spatial profiles for the total density and for the density of the excess-spin component, and the changes of their properties across the BEC-BCS crossover are examined in different conditions of temperature and imbalance. The presence of population imbalance is shown to strongly affect the structure of the soliton excitation by filling its core with unpaired atoms. This in turn influences the dynamical properties of the soliton since the additional particles in the core have to be dragged along thus altering the effective mass.
