Abstract

We determine the size of the critical region of the superfluid transition in the BCS-BEC crossover of a three-dimensional fermion gas, using a renormalization-group approach to a bosonic theory of pairing fluctuations. For the unitary Fermi gas, we find a sizable critical region [TG,TG+][T_G^-,T_G^+], of order TcT_c, around the transition temperature TcT_c with a pronounced asymmetry: TG+Tc/TGTc8|T_G^+-T_c|/|T_G^--T_c|\sim8. The critical region is strongly suppressed on the BCS side of the crossover but remains important on the BEC side.
