We show how to describe the $T \neq 0$ behavior associated with the usual BCS- Bose Einstein condensation (BEC) crossover ground state. We confine our attention here to the BEC and near-BEC regime where analytical calculations are possible.…
We show that a two-dimensional (2D) spin-polarised Fermi gas immersed in a 3D Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) constitutes a very promising system to realise a $p_x+ip_y$ superfluid. The fermions attract each other via an induced interaction…
Both the trapping geometry and the interatomic interaction strength of a dilute ultracold fermionic gas can be well controlled experimentally. When the interactions are tuned to strong attraction, Cooper pairing of neutral atoms takes place…
