Density profile of a polarized unitary Fermi gas

Statistical Mechanics 2016-08-16 v2

Abstract

We present a theoretical study of the density profile of a trapped strongly interacting Fermi gas with unbalanced spin populations. Making the assumption of the existence of a first order phase transition between an unpolarized superfluid phase and a fully polarized normal phase, we show good agreement with a recent experiment presented in Partridge et al.
