We use quantum Monte Carlo, including backflow corrections, to investigate a two-component Fermi gas on the upper branch of a Feshbach resonance and contrast it with the hard sphere gas. We find that, in both cases, the Fermi liquid becomes…
The relaxation processes in an ultra-cold degenerate atomic Fermi gas near a Feshbach resonance are considered. It is shown that the relaxation rate of the molecules being in a resonance with the atomic Fermi system is of the order of the…
We consider the problem of a single \down atom in the presence of a Fermi sea of \up atoms, in the vicinity of a Feshbach resonance. We calculate the chemical potential and the effective mass of the \down atom using two simple approaches: a…
We measure radio-frequency spectra for a two-component mixture of a $^6$Li atomic Fermi gas in the quasi-two-dimensional regime. Near the Feshbach resonance, where the transverse Fermi energy is large compared to the confinement-induced…
In some recent experiments an ultracold gas of $^{40}$K$_2$ (or $^{6}$Li$_2$) molecules has been produced from a degenerate two-component Fermi gas of $^{40}$K (or $^{6}$Li) atoms by adiabatic passage through a Feshbach resonance. The…
We consider a single quantum particle in a spherical box interacting with a fixed scatterer at the center, to construct a model of a degenerate atomic Fermi gas close to a Feshbach resonance. One of the key predictions of the model is the…
We observe collective oscillations of a trapped, degenerate Fermi gas of $^6$Li atoms at a magnetic field just above a Feshbach resonance, where the two-body physics does not support a bound state. The gas exhibits a radial breathing mode…

The properties of two-component Fermi gases with zero-range interactions are universal. We use an explicitly correlated Gaussian basis set expansion approach to investigate small equal-mass two-component Fermi gases under spherically…
We present a theory of a degenerate atomic Fermi gas, interacting through a narrow Feshbach resonance, whose position and therefore strength can be tuned experimentally, as demonstrated recently in ultracold trapped atomic gases. The…
We study a spin-polarized degenerate Fermi gas interacting via a p-wave Feshbach resonance in an optical lattice. The strong confinement available in this system allows us to realize one- and two-dimensional gases and therefore to restrict…
We present a study of a gas of bosons confined in one dimension with Feshbach resonant interactions, at zero temperature. Unlike the gas of one dimensional bosons with non-resonant interactions, which is known to be equivalent to a system…
A sum rule approach is used to calculate the zero temperature oscillation frequencies of a two component trapped atomic Fermi gas in the BCS-Bose Einstein condensation crossover region. These sum rules are evaluated using a local density…
