Abstract

We investigate theoretically Fermionic superfluidity induced by Feshbach resonance in the orbital p-wave channel. We show that, due to the dipole interaction, the pairing is extremely anisotropic. When this dipole interaction is relatively strong, the pairing has symmetry kzk_z. When it is relatively weak, it is of symmetry kz+iβkyk_z + i \beta k_y (up to a rotation about z^\hat z, here β<1\beta < 1). A phase transition between these two states can occur under a change in the magnetic field or the density of the gas.
