We study an impurity atom in a two-dimensional Fermi gas using variational wave functions for (i) an impurity dressed by particle-hole excitations (polaron) and (ii) a dimer consisting of the impurity and a majority atom. In contrast to…
We report on the experimental observation of multiorbital polarons in a two-dimensional Fermi gas of $^{173}\mathrm{Yb}$ atoms formed by mobile impurities in the metastable $^3\mathrm{P}_0$ orbital and a Fermi sea in the ground-state…
We demonstrate that the theoretical description of current experiments of quasi-2D Fermi gases requires going beyond usual 2D theories. We provide such a theory for the highly spin-imbalanced quasi-2D Fermi gas. For typical experimental…
We revisit the polaron-molecule transition in three-dimensional(3D) fermion systems using the well-established variational approach. The molecule is found to be intrinsically unstable against lowest-order particle-hole excitations, and it…
