The physics of pair-density waves: cuprate superconductors and beyond

DF Agterberg, JCS Davis, SD Edkins… - Annual Review of …, 2020 - annualreviews.org
We review the physics of pair-density wave (PDW) superconductors. We begin with a
macroscopic description that emphasizes order induced by PDW states, such as charge …

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 …

Universal phase diagram of a strongly interacting Fermi gas with unbalanced spin populations

F Chevy - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and Optical …, 2006 - APS
We present a theoretical interpretation of a recent experiment presented by Zwierlein
[Nature (London) 442, 54 (2006)] on the density profile of Fermi gases with unbalanced spin …

Observation of a smooth polaron-molecule transition in a degenerate Fermi gas

G Ness, C Shkedrov, Y Florshaim, OK Diessel… - Physical Review X, 2020 - APS
Understanding the behavior of an impurity strongly interacting with a Fermi sea is a long-
standing challenge in many-body physics. When the interactions are short ranged, two …

Ultra-cold polarized Fermi gases

F Chevy, C Mora - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
Recent experiments with ultra-cold atoms have demonstrated the possibility of realizing
fermionic superfluids with imbalanced spin populations experimentally. We discuss how …

Imbalanced feshbach-resonant fermi gases

L Radzihovsky, DE Sheehy - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an overview of recent developments in species-imbalanced ('polarized')
Feshbach-resonant Fermi gases. We summarize the current status of thermodynamics of …

Crystalline color superconductors

R Anglani, R Casalbuoni, M Ciminale, N Ippolito… - Reviews of Modern …, 2014 - APS
Inhomogeneous superconductors and inhomogeneous superfluids appear in a variety of
contexts including quark matter at extreme densities, fermionic systems of cold atoms, type-II …

BEC–BCS crossover, phase transitions and phase separation in polarized resonantly-paired superfluids

DE Sheehy, L Radzihovsky - Annals of Physics, 2007 - Elsevier
We study resonantly-paired s-wave superfluidity in a degenerate gas of two species
(hyperfine states labeled by↑,↓) of fermionic atoms when the numbers N↑ and N↓ of the …

Polaron-to-molecule transition in a strongly imbalanced Fermi gas

M Punk, PT Dumitrescu, W Zwerger - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular …, 2009 - APS
A single down-spin fermion with an attractive zero-range interaction with a Fermi sea of up-
spin fermions forms a polaronic quasiparticle. The associated quasiparticle weight vanishes …

Sub-Doppler laser cooling of fermionic 40K atoms in three-dimensional gray optical molasses

DR Fernandes, F Sievers, N Kretzschmar… - Europhysics …, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
We demonstrate sub-Doppler cooling of 40 K on the D 1 atomic transition. Using a gray-
molasses scheme, we efficiently cool a compressed cloud of 6.5× 10 8 atoms from∼ 4 mK to …
