The unitary Fermi gas at finite temperature: momentum distribution and contact
The Unitary Fermi Gas (UFG) is one of the most strongly interacting systems known to date, as it saturates the unitarity bound on the quantum mechanical scattering cross section. The UFG corresponds to a two-component Fermi gas in the limit of short interaction range and large scattering length, and is currently realized in ultracold-atom experiments via Feshbach resonances. While easy to defin...
متن کاملMeasurement of the homogeneous contact of a unitary Fermi gas.
By selectively probing the center of a trapped gas, we measure the local, or homogeneous, contact of a unitary Fermi gas as a function of temperature. Tan's contact, C, is proportional to the derivative of the energy with respect to the interaction strength and is thus an essential thermodynamic quantity for a gas with short-range correlations. Theoretical predictions for the temperature depend...
متن کاملFinite-temperature momentum distribution of a trapped Fermi gas
We present measurements of the temperature-dependent momentum distribution of a trapped Fermi gas consisting of K in the BCS to Bose-Einstein condensation crossover regime. Accompanying theoretical results based upon a simple mean-field ground state are compared to the experimental data. Nonmonotonic effects associated with temperature T arise from the competition between thermal broadening and...
متن کاملUnitary Fermi gas in the ǫ expansion
We construct systematic expansions around four and two spatial dimensions for a Fermi gas near the unitarity limit. Near four spatial dimensions such a Fermi gas can be understood as a weaklyinteracting system of fermionic and bosonic degrees of freedom. To the leading and next-to-leading orders in the expansion over ǫ = 4 − d, with d being the dimensionality of space, we calculate the thermody...
متن کاملPrecise determination of the structure factor and contact in a unitary Fermi gas.
We present a high-precision determination of the universal contact parameter in a strongly interacting Fermi gas. In a trapped gas at unitarity, we find the contact to be 3.06±0.08 at a temperature of 0.08 of the Fermi temperature in a harmonic trap. The contact governs the high-momentum (short-range) properties of these systems, and this low-temperature measurement provides a new benchmark for...
