We study the phase diagram of one dimensional spin one-half fermionic cold atoms. The two ``spin'' species can have different hopping or mass. The phase diagram at equal densities of the species is found to be very rich, Mott insulators as…
Ultracold atomic Fermi gases can be tuned to interact strongly, where they display spectroscopic signatures above the superfluid transition reminiscent of the pseudogap in cuprates. However, the extent of the analogy can be questioned,…
