Zero-sound density oscillations in Fermi-Bose mixtures

Abstract

Within a mean field plus random-phase approximation formalism, we investigate the collective excitations of a three-component Fermi-Bose mixture of K atoms, magnetically trapped and subjected to repulsive s-wave interactions. We analyze both the single-particle excitation and the density oscillation spectra created by external multipolar fields for varying fermion concentrations. The formalism and the numerical output are consistent with the generalized Kohn theorem for the whole multispecies system. The calculations give rise to fragmented density excitation spectra of the fermion sample and illustrate the role of the mutual interaction in the observed deviations of the bosonic spectra with respect to Stringari's rule.

Collisionless collective modes of fermions in magnetic traps

P. Capuzzi, E. Susana Hernández

We present a random-phase-approximation formalism for the collective spectrum of two hyperfine species of dilute ${}^{40}\mathrm{K}$ atoms, magnetically trapped at zero temperature and subjected to a repulsive s-wave interaction between atoms with different spin projections. We examine the density and the spin oscillation spectra, as well as the transition density profiles created by external multipolar fields. The zero sound spectrum is always fragmented and the density and spin channels become clearly distinguishable if the trapping potentials acting on the species are identical. Although this distinction is lost when these confining fields are different, at selected excitation frequencies the transition densities may display the signature of the channel.

Transition of fermionic spectra and monopole oscillations under phase separation in the atomic Bose-Fermi mixture

Takaaki Sogo, T. Suzuki, Hiroyuki Yabu

We study the dynamical behavior of a Bose-Fermi mixture of trapped atomic gases which exhibits phase separation for a sufficiently strong repulsive interparticle interaction. For a dominantly bosonic mixture, the fermion density distribution and the associated single-particle spectra undergo a rapid change around the transition to the separated phase. Monopole strength distribution is studied in the random-phase approximation. The average energy calculated from the fermionic monopole strength shows a sharp minimum close to the transition point. The dynamical origin of the fermion single particle and collective properties is studied within a simple approximation.

Collective Excitations of Trapped Bose–Fermi Mixture of Atomic Gases in RPA

Collective excitations of a trapped Bose–Fermi mixture of atomic gases are studied in a random-phase approximation. Density profiles in the ground states are solved in the mean field approximation for various strengths of Bose–Fermi interaction. Monopole strength distributions and the dynamical structure factors are investigated for two types of the Bose–Fermi mixture. It is found in the mixture with the large excess of bosons the fermionic strength is concentrated in a single collective state for strong Bose–Fermi interactions. The dynamical structure factors for these collective states show that fermions are correlated through the Bose condensate. Time dependent behavior of the system after an external impulse is also studied.

Collisional oscillations of trapped boson-fermion mixtures in the approach to the collapse instability

P. Capuzzi, Anna Minguzzi, M. P. Tosi

We study the collective modes of a confined gaseous cloud of bosons and fermions with mutual attractive interactions at zero temperature. The cloud consists of a Bose-Einstein condensate and a spin-polarized Fermi gas inside a spherical harmonic trap and the coupling between the two species is varied by increasing either the magnitude of the interspecies $s$-wave scattering length or the number of bosons. The mode frequencies are obtained in the collisional regime by solving the equations of generalized hydrodynamics and are compared with the spectra calculated in the collisionless regime within a random-phase approximation. We find that, as the mixture is driven towards the collapse instability, the frequencies of the modes of fermionic origin show a blue shift which can become very significant for large numbers of bosons. Instead the modes of bosonic origin show a softening, which becomes most pronounced in the very proximity of collapse. Explicit illustrations of these trends are given for the monopolar spectra, but similar trends are found for the dipolar and quadrupolar spectra except for the surface $(n=0)$ modes which are essentially unaffected by the interactions.

Collective Modes in Bose-Fermi Mixture Gases

Asano Yoji, Yoji Asano

This thesis theoretically deals with collective modes in the normal phase of a Bose-Fermi mixture composed of single-species bosons and single-species fermions.The mixture is experimentally established as an ultracold atomic gas.While the community studies the mixture including a superfluid phase, relevant to Bose-Einstein condensation of bosons and Cooper paring of fermions, dynamical behaviors in the normal phase have been not fully understood so that we are interested in.We consider the mixture in both spatially uniform and harmonically trapped systems with the Boltzmann equation at finite temperatures.We perform the analysis under the assumption that the physical quantities are near to equilibrium.After the linerization, we apply the moment method to the equation, obtaining a closed set of coupled equations to describe sound or oscillation.The collisional property of the system characterizes the collective modes in the sense of the hydrodynamic regime, collisionless regime, and transition between these regimes.In the uniform system, we investigate sound mode and the dynamic density structure factor.With decreasing temperature, we find that the sound velocity deviates from that of the hydrodynamic mode.Even at a temperature much lower than the Fermi temperature, the sound velocity does not reach the collisionless limit analogous to the zero sound in a Fermi system.However, we show the existence of a long-lived sound at a low temperature as distinct from the first and zero sounds.Nature of the long-lived sound seems to be originated by Pauli blocking of fermions; this statistical effect makes the interspecies collision suppress in the Bose-Fermi mixture.In the trapped system, we mainly study dipole oscillation.We consistently define the relaxation time originated by the interspecies scattering.We find that two oscillating modes in the collisionless regime have distinct fates in the hydrodynamic regime; one collisionless mode shows a crossover to a hydrodynamic in-phase mode, and the other collisionless mode shows a transition to two purely-damped modes.We show the time evolution of the three types of hydrodynamic modes with suitable initial conditions.We discuss temperature dependence of the dipole modes.We observe that the relaxation time dominates the dependence compared to the mean-field contribution.We also observe the nonmonotonic behavior of the relaxation time when Pauli blocking of fermions is not negligible.i List of Figures 1.1 Two schematic images of collisions with a period of oscillation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 1.2 Measurement of the zero sound in pure liquid 3 He . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2 1.3 Transition between the first sound and the zero sound in a two-component Fermi gas . . . 3 1.4 Dipole oscillations of the two-component gas of 40 K . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 1.5 Frequencies of dipole mode in the two-component gas of 40 K . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 1.6 Damping times of dipole mode in the two-component gas of 40 K . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 1.7 Dipole oscillations of the mixture of 87 Rb and 40 K in the hydrodynamic regime . . . . . . .6 1.8 Dipole oscillations of the mixture of 87 Rb and 40 K in the deeper hydrodynamic regime . . .6 1.9 Dipole oscillations of the mixture of 87 Rb and 40 K in the collisionless regime . . . . . . . .7 2.1 Results obtained by solving the coupled moment equations for sound mode . . . . . . . . .26 3.1 Time evolution of the center-of-mass positions and velocity fields . . . . . . . . . . . . . .39 3.2 Dipole modes as a function of the relaxation time with N B = N F . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .40 3.3 Dipole modes as a function of the relaxation time with N B /N F = 0.2 . . . . . . . . . . . . .41 3.4 Ratio of the displacement of the center of mass to the velocity field as a function of the relaxation time . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Effects of fermion-boson interaction in neutral atomic systems

Nobuhiko Yokoshi, Susumu Kurihara

We investigate the collective excitations of ${}^{3}\mathrm{He}{--}^{4}\mathrm{He}$ mixture films at zero temperature within the random phase approximation and linear response theory. In a low concentration regime of ${}^{3}\mathrm{He},$ a level repulsion between zero sound and third sound modes is derived, which opens the possibility to observe quantum mechanical coherence between a ${}^{3}\mathrm{He}$ particle-hole pair and the condensate of ${}^{4}\mathrm{He}.$ We also investigate the ${}^{3}\mathrm{He}{--}^{4}\mathrm{He}$ vertex corrections in the ladder approximation, and show that the third branch, the combined mode of fermionic particle-hole pair and the third sound quanta, provides a unique correction to the Landau f function. Some implications for a fermion-boson mixture of alkali atoms in a potential trap are discussed.
