Theory of ultracold atomic Fermi gases

S Giorgini, LP Pitaevskii, S Stringari - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2008 - APS
The physics of quantum degenerate atomic Fermi gases in uniform as well as in
harmonically trapped configurations is reviewed from a theoretical perspective. Emphasis is …

Atom–molecule coherence in Bose gases

RA Duine, HTC Stoof - Physics Reports, 2004 - Elsevier
In an atomic gas near a Feshbach resonance, the energy of two colliding atoms is close to
the energy of a bound state, ie, a molecular state, in a closed channel that is coupled to the …

Experimental realization of two-dimensional synthetic spin–orbit coupling in ultracold Fermi gases

L Huang, Z Meng, P Wang, P Peng, SL Zhang, L Chen… - Nature Physics, 2016 - nature.com
Spin–orbit coupling (SOC) is central to many physical phenomena, including fine structures
of atomic spectra and topological phases in ultracold atoms. Whereas, in general, SOC is …

Making, probing and understanding ultracold Fermi gases

W Ketterle, MW Zwierlein - La Rivista del Nuovo Cimento, 2008 - Springer

Equation of state of a Fermi gas in the BEC-BCS crossover: A quantum Monte Carlo study

GE Astrakharchik, J Boronat, J Casulleras, S Giorgini - Physical review letters, 2004 - APS
We calculate the equation of state of a two-component Fermi gas with attractive short-range
interspecies interactions using the fixed-node diffusion Monte Carlo method. The interaction …

Collective Rabi oscillations and solitons in a time-dependent BCS pairing problem

RA Barankov, LS Levitov, BZ Spivak - Physical review letters, 2004 - APS
Motivated by recent efforts to achieve cold fermions pairing, we study the nonadiabatic
regime of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer state formation. After the interaction is turned on, at …

Quantum fluctuations in the superfluid state of the BCS-BEC crossover

RB Diener, R Sensarma, M Randeria - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular …, 2008 - APS
We determine the effects of quantum fluctuations about the T= 0 mean-field solution of the
BCS-BEC crossover in a dilute Fermi gas using the functional integral method. These …

Higgs mode in a strongly interacting fermionic superfluid

A Behrle, T Harrison, J Kombe, K Gao, M Link… - Nature Physics, 2018 - nature.com
Higgs and Goldstone modes are possible collective modes of an order parameter on
spontaneously breaking a continuous symmetry. Whereas the low-energy Goldstone …

Non-Hermitian phase transition from a polariton Bose-Einstein condensate to a photon laser

R Hanai, A Edelman, Y Ohashi, PB Littlewood - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
We propose a novel mechanism for a nonequilibrium phase transition in a U (1)-broken
phase of an electron-hole-photon system, from a Bose-Einstein condensate of polaritons to …

Lifetime of Molecule-Atom Mixtures near a Feshbach Resonance in

CA Regal, M Greiner, DS ** - Physical Review Letters, 2004 - APS
We report a dramatic magnetic-field dependence in the lifetime of trapped, ultracold diatomic
molecules created through an s-wave Feshbach resonance between fermionic atoms. The …
