The Fermi-Hubbard model at unitarity

Superconductivity 2009-04-08 v2 Statistical Mechanics

Abstract

We simulate the dilute attractive Fermi-Hubbard model in the unitarity regime using a diagrammatic determinant Monte Carlo algorithm with worm-type updates. We obtain the dependence of the critical temperature on the filling factor ν\nu and, by extrapolating to ν0\nu \to 0, determine the universal critical temperature of the continuum unitary Fermi gas in units of Fermi energy: Tc/ϵF=0.152(7)T_c/\epsilon_F=0.152(7). We also determine the thermodynamic functions and show how the Monte Carlo results can be used for accurate thermometry of a trapped unitary gas.
