Shell-shaped atomic gases

A Tononi, L Salasnich - Physics Reports, 2024 - Elsevier
We review the quantum statistical properties of two-dimensional shell-shaped gases,
produced by cooling and confining atomic ensembles in thin hollow shells. We consider …

Zero-point energy of ultracold atoms

L Salasnich, F Toigo - Physics Reports, 2016 - Elsevier
We analyze the divergent zero-point energy of a dilute and ultracold gas of atoms in D
spatial dimensions. For bosonic atoms we explicitly show how to regularize this divergent …

Sound propagation and quantum-limited damping in a two-dimensional Fermi gas

M Bohlen, L Sobirey, N Luick, H Biss, T Enss… - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
Strongly interacting two-dimensional Fermi systems are one of the great remaining

Quantum geometric contributions to the BKT transition: Beyond mean field theory

Z Wang, G Chaudhary, Q Chen, K Levin - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We study quantum geometric contributions to the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT)
transition temperature T BKT in the presence of fluctuations beyond BCS theory. Because …

Tighter upper bounds on the critical temperature of two-dimensional superfluids and superconductors from the BCS to the Bose regime

T Shi, W Zhang, CARS de Melo - New Journal of Physics, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We discuss standard and tighter upper bounds on the critical temperature Tc of two-
dimensional superfluids and superconductors versus particle density n or filling factor ν for …

Interplay of spin waves and vortices in the two-dimensional XY model at small vortex-core energy

I Maccari, N Defenu, L Benfatto, C Castellani, T Enss - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
The Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) mechanism describes universal vortex unbinding
in many two-dimensional systems, including the paradigmatic XY model. However, most of …

Superfluid density and critical velocity near the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition in a two-dimensional strongly interacting Fermi gas

BC Mulkerin, L He, P Dyke, CJ Vale, XJ Liu, H Hu - Physical Review A, 2017 - APS
We theoretically investigate superfluidity in a strongly interacting Fermi gas confined to two
dimensions at finite temperature. Using a Gaussian pair fluctuation theory in the superfluid …

Second sound in a two-dimensional Bose gas: From the weakly to the strongly interacting regime

M Ota, S Stringari - Physical Review A, 2018 - APS
Using Landau's theory of two-fluid hydrodynamics, we investigate first and second sounds
propagating in a two-dimensional (2D) Bose gas. We study the temperature and interaction …
