Excitation spectrum of the attractive Hubbard model

We study excitation-spectrum and normal-state properties of the two-dimensional attractive Hubbard model using the conserving, self-consistent T-matrix formalism in the intermediate coupling regime and at low electron concentration. Numerical results are presented for one-particle and two-particle excitation spectra, the one-particle momentum distribution, the chemical potential, and the static spin susceptibility. For a coupling strength of U/t=4.0, the one-particle spectral function, A(k,\ensuremath{\omega}), shows two peaks of different weights. One peak can be associated with pair formation, whereas the other corresponds to renormalized quasiparticle excitation. It turns out that the two-band feature is reasonably well described by an ansatz for A(k,\ensuremath{\omega}), which satisfies the first four frequency moments.
