Abstract

Within the framework of the variational approach the ground state is studied in a gas of Fermi atoms near the Feshbach resonance at negative scattering length. The structure of the originating superfluid state is formed by two coherently bound subsystems. One subsystem is that of quasi molecules in the closed channel and the other is a system of pairs of atoms in the open channel. The set of equations derived allows us to describe the properties of the ground state at an arbitrary magnitude of the parameters. In particular, it allows one to find a gap in the spectrum of single-particle Fermi excitations and sound velocity characterizing a branch of collective Bose excitations.

Structure of the superfluid ground state of an atomic Fermi gas near the Feshbach resonance

Yu. Kagan, Leonid A. Maksimov

The ground state of an atomic Fermi gas near the Feshbach resonance for a negative scattering length is investigated using the variational method. The structure of the superfluid state is formed by two coherently coupled subsystems, viz., the quasimolecular subsystem in a closed channel and the subsystem of atomic pairs in an open channel. The derived system of equations makes it possible to describe the properties of the ground state for arbitrary values of the parameters (in particular, to find the gap in the single-particle Fermi excitation spectrum and the speed of sound characterizing the branch of collective Bose excitations).

Microscopic many-body theory of atomic Bose gases near a Feshbach resonance

R. A. Duine, Henk T. C. Stoof

A Feshbach resonance in the s-wave scattering length occurs if the energy of the two atoms in the incoming open channel is close to the energy of a bound state in a coupled closed channel. Starting from the microscopic Hamiltonian that describes this situation, we derive the effective atom–molecule theory for a Bose gas near a Feshbach resonance. In order to take into account all two-body processes, we have to dress the bare couplings of the atom–molecule model with ladder diagrams. This results in a quantum field theory that exactly reproduces the scattering amplitude of the atoms and the bound-state energy of the molecules. Since these properties are incorporated at the quantum level, the theory can be applied both above and below the critical temperature of the gas. Moreover, making use of the true interatomic potentials ensures that no divergences are encountered at any stage of the calculation. We also present the mean-field theory for the Bose–Einstein condensed phase of the gas.

Superfluid properties of an ultracold Fermi gas with an orbital Feshbach resonance in the BCS-BEC crossover region

Taro Kamihori, Daichi Kagamihara, Yoji Ohashi

We theoretically investigate the superfluid properties of a two-band gas of $^{173}\mathrm{Yb}$ Fermi atoms with an orbital Feshbach resonance (OFR). To describe the BCS-BEC crossover region, we include superfluid fluctuations caused by interband and intraband pairing interactions associated with OFR by extending the strong-coupling theory developed by Nozi\`eres and Schmitt-Rink to the two-band case below the superfluid phase transition temperature; however, the effects of an experimentally inaccessible deep bound state are removed to model a real $^{173}\mathrm{Yb}$ Fermi gas near OFR. We show that the condensate fraction in the upper closed channel gradually becomes smaller than that in the lower open channel as one moves from the strong- to the weak-coupling regime, because the OFR-pairing mechanism tunes the interaction strengths by adjusting the energy difference between the two bands. However, even when the closed-channel band is much higher in energy than the open-channel band in the weak-coupling regime, the magnitude of the superfluid order parameter in the closed channel is found to be still comparable to that in the open channel. As the reason for this, we point out a pair-tunneling effect by the OFR-induced interband interaction. In addition to these superfluid quantities, we also examine collective modes, such as the Goldstone mode, the Schmid (Higgs) mode, and Leggett mode, to clarify how they appear in the spectral weights of pair-correlation functions in each band. Since the realization of a multiband superfluid Fermi gas is a crucial issue in cold Fermi gas physics, our results would contribute to the basic understanding of this type of Fermi superfluid in the BCS-BEC crossover region.

Composite pairing and superfluidity in a one-dimensional resonant Bose-Fermi mixture

Shimul Akhanjee, Masahisa Tsuchiizu, Akira Furusaki

We study the ground-state properties of one-dimensional mixtures of bosonic and fermionic atoms resonantly coupled to fermionic Feshbach molecules. When the particle densities of fermionic atoms and Feshbach molecules differ, the system undergoes various depletion transitions between binary and ternary mixtures as a function of the detuning parameter. However, when the particle densities of fermionic atoms and Feshbach molecules are identical, the molecular conversion and disassociation processes induce a gap in a sector of low-energy excitations, and the remaining system can be described by a two-component Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid. Using a bosonization scheme, we derive the effective low-energy Hamiltonian for the system, which has a similar form as that of the two-chain problem of coupled Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids. With the help of improved perturbative renormalization group analysis of the latter problem, we determine the ground-state phase diagram and find that it contains a phase dominated by composite superfluid or pairing correlations between the open and closed resonant channels.

Speed of sound in a superfluid Fermi gas in an optical lattice

Zlatko G. Koinov

A system of equal mixture of $^6Li$ atomic Fermi gas of two hyperfine states loaded into a cubic three-dimensional optical lattice is studied assuming a negative scattering length (BCS side of the Feshbach resonance). When the interaction is attractive, fermionic atoms can pair and form a superfluid. The dispersion of the phonon-like mode and the speed of sound in the long-wavelength limit are obtained by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equations for the collective modes of the attractive Hubbard Hamiltonian.
