We consider pairing of itinerant fermions in a metal near a quantum-critical point (QCP) towards some form of particle-hole order (nematic, spin-density-wave, charge-density-wave, etc). At a QCP, the dominant interaction between fermions…

We take into account the Coulomb (N + 1)-body problem with N = 12, 24, 60. One of the particles has positive charge Q > 0, and the remaining N have all the same negative charge q < 0. These particles move under the Coulomb force, and the…
