6 A little bit of history
7 Bertsch Many-Body X challenge, Seattle, 1999 What are the ground state properties of the many-body system composed of spin ½ fermions interacting via a zero-range, range, infinite scattering-length contact interaction. Why? Besides pure theoretical curiosity, this problem is relevant t to neutron stars! In 1999 it was not yet clear, either theoretically or experimentally, whether such fermion matter is stable or not! A number of people argued that under such conditions fermionic matter is unstable. - systems of bosons are unstable (Efimov effect) - systems of three or more fermion species are unstable (Efimov effect) Baker (winner of the MBX challenge) concluded that the system is stable. See also Heiselberg (entry to the same competition) Carlson et al (2003) Fixed-Node Green Function Monte Carlo and Astrakharchik et al. (2004) FN-DMC provided the best theoretical estimates for the ground state energy of such systems. Thomas Duke group (2002) demonstrated experimentally that such systems are (meta)stable.
8 Bertsch s regime is nowadays called the unitary regime The system is very dilute, but strongly interacting! n r r 0 n a 3 1 n-1/3 1/3 λ F /2 a n - number density r 0 - range of interaction a - scattering length
9 Expected phases of a two species dilute Fermi system BCS-BEC BEC crossover High T, normal atomic (plus a few molecules) phase T Strong interaction weak interactions weak interaction BCS Superfluid a<0 no 2-body bound state Molecular BEC and Atomic+Molecular Superfluids a>0 shallow 2-body bound state halo dimers 1/a
10 Early theoretical approach to BCS-BEC BEC crossover Dyson (?), Eagles (1969), Leggett (1980) ( k k k k ) gs = u +v a a vacuum BCS wave function k m π 1 1 = ε 2 4 k 2 k 2Ek a 8 e 2 ε F exp π 2k a F gap equation ε µ k n = 2 1 number density equation k E k pairing gap 2 2 E k = ( ε k µ ) + quasi-particle energy ε k 2 2 k ε µ k =, u k + v k = 1, v k= 1 2m 2 E k total k = F + π a +... k n, n = F 2 E 3 3 N 5 2m m 8µ 3π Neglected/overlooked Exponentially suppressed in BCS
11 Consequences: Usual BCS solution for small and negative scattering lengths, with exponentially small pairing gap For small and positive scattering lengths this equations describe a gas a weakly repelling (weakly bound/shallow) molecules, essentially all at rest (almost pure BEC state) Ψ ( r, r, r, r,...) A [ ϕ( r ) ϕ( r )...] In BCS limit the particle projected many-body wave function has the same structure (BEC of spatially overlapping Cooper pairs) For both large positive and negative values of the scattering length these equations predict a smooth crossover from BCS to BEC, from a gas of spatially large Cooper pairs to a gas of small molecules
12 What is wrong with this approach: The BCS gap (a<0 and small) is overestimated, thus the critical temperature and the condensation energy are overestimated as well. In BEC limit (a>0 and small) the molecule repulsion is overestimated The approach neglects of the role of the meanfield (HF) interaction, which is the bulk of the interaction energy in both BCS and unitary regime All pairs have zero center of mass momentum, which is reasonable in BCS and BEC limits, but incorrect in the unitary regime, where the interaction between pairs is strong!!! (this situation is similar to superfluid 4 He) Ψ ( r, r, r, r,...) A [ ϕ( r ) ϕ( r )...] Fraction of non-condensed pairs (perturbative( result)!?! n n ex n = na m mm, nm=, amm 0.6 a 3 π 2

23 More details of the calculations: Lattice sizes used from 6 3 x ( ), 8 3 x ( ) and 10 3 Effective use of FFT(W) makes all imaginary time propagators diagonal (either in real space or momentum space) and there is no need to store large matrices Update field configurations using the Metropolis importance sampling algorithm Change randomly at a fraction of all space and time sites the signs s the auxiliary fields σ(x, (x,τ)) so as to maintain a running average of the acceptance rate of about 0.5 Thermalize for 50, ,000 MC steps or/and use as a start-up field configuration a σ(x, (x,τ)-field configuration from a different T At low temperatures use Singular Value Decomposition of the evolution operator U({σ}) to stabilize the numerics Use 100,000-2,000,000 σ(x, (x,τ)- field configurations for calculations MC correlation time time steps at T T c

26 The known dependence of the entropy on temperature at unitarity S(T) can be used to devise a thermometer! How? The temperature can be measured either in the BCS or BEC limits, where interactions are weak, and easily be related to the entropy S(T) The system can then adiabatically (S= constant) be brought into the unitary regime and from the calculated S(T) one can read T

34 Conclusions The present calculational scheme is free of the fermion sign problem (unlike the Quantum MC T=0 results). The T=0 limit of the present results confirms the QMC results. Fully non-perturbative calculations for a spin ½ many fermion system in the unitary regime at finite temperatures are feasible. This system undergoes a phase transition in the bulk at T c = 0.22 (3) ε F The phase transition is observed in various thermodynamic potentials tials (total energy, entropy, chemical potential) as well as in the presence of off-diagonal long range order in the two-body density matrix. One can define also a thermometer. Below the transition temperature the system behaves as a free condensedc Bose gas (!), which is superfluid at the same time! No thermodynamic hint of Fermionic degrees of freedom! Above the critical temperature one observes the thermodynamic behavior of a free Fermi gas! No thermodynamic trace of bosonic degrees of freedom! New type of fermionic superfluid.
