Abstract

We study stimulated light scattering off a superfluid Fermi gas of atoms at finite temperature. We derive response function that takes into account vertex correction due to final state interactions; and analyze finite temperature effects on collective and quasiparticle excitations of a uniform superfluid Fermi gas. Light polarization is shown to play an important role in excitations. Our results suggest that it is possible to excite Bogoliubov-Anderson phonon at a large scattering length by light scattering.
