We present spatially resolved radio-frequency spectroscopy of a trapped Fermi gas with resonant interactions and observe a spectral gap at low temperatures. The spatial distribution of the spectral response of the trapped gas is obtained…
We investigate the particle and kinetic energy densities of harmonically trapped fermion gases at zero temperature in arbitrary dimensions. We derive analytically a differential equation connecting these densities, which so far have been…
We find an analytical expression for the specific heat of a Fermi gas in a harmonic trap using a semi-classical approximation. Our approximation is valid for kT>hw and in this range it is shown to be highly accurate. We comment on the…
We consider a mixture of two-component Fermi gases at low temperature. The density profile of this degenerate Fermi gas is calculated under the semiclassical approximation. The results show that the fermion-fermion interactions make a large…
Dynamics of strongly interacting trapped dilute Fermi gases is investigated at zero temperature. As an example of application we consider the expansion of the cloud of fermions initially confined in an anisotropic harmonic trap, and study…
We study the thermodynamical properties of a mesoscopic Fermi gas in view of recent possibilities to trap ultracold atoms in a harmonic potential. We focus on the effects of shell closure for finite small atom numbers. The dependence of the…
In view of ongoing experiments to trap ultracold spin-polarized $^6$Li, we study various properties of an interacting Fermi gas in a harmonic trap taking the discrete nature of the unperturbed harmonic trap levels into account exactly. As…
In this paper we derive an analytic approximation to the density of states for atoms in a combined optical lattice and harmonic trap potential as used in current experiments with quantum degenerate gases. We compare this analytic density of…
One-particle properties of non-interacting Fermions in a one-dimensional harmonic trap and at zero temperature are studied. Exact expressions and asymptotic results for large Fermion number N are given for the particle density distribution…
We present a theoretical interpretation of radio-frequency (RF) pairing gap experiments in trapped atomic Fermi gases, over the entire range of the BCS-BEC crossover, for temperatures above and below $T_c$. Our calculated RF excitation…
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…
We theoretically investigate an ultracold spin-polarized atomic Fermi gas with resonant odd-channel ($p$-wave) interactions trapped in one-dimensional harmonic traps. We solve the Yang-Yang thermodynamic equations based on the exact Bethe…
The zero-temperature properties of a dilute two-component Fermi gas in the BCS-BEC crossover are investigated. On the basis of a generalization of the Hylleraas-Undheim method, we construct rigorous upper bounds to the collective…
We demonstrate a technique for obtaining the density of atomic vapor, by doing a fit of the resonant absorption spectrum to a density-matrix model. In order to demonstrate the usefulness of the technique, we apply it to absorption in the…
We measure the temperature of a deeply degenerate Fermi gas, by using a weakly interacting sample of heavier bosonic atoms as a probe. This thermometry method relies on the thermalization between the two species and on the determination of…
We study low temperature thermodynamic properties of a polarized Fermi gas trapped in a quartic anharmonic potential. We use a semi classical approximation and a low temperature series expansion method to derive analytical expressions for…
Cold-atom experiments which measure Fermi-gas properties near unitarity confine fermionic atoms to a region of space using trapping potentials of various shapes. The presence of a trapping potential introduces a new characteristic physical…
We study normal state properties of an interacting Fermi gas in an isotropic harmonic trap of arbitrary dimensions. We exactly calculate the first-order perturbation terms in the ground state energy and chemical potential, and obtain simple…
The propagation of zero sound in a spin-polarized Fermi gas under harmonic confinement is studied as a function of the mean-field interactions with a second Fermi gas. A local-density treatment is compared with the numerical solution of the…
Starting from a set of coupled Boltzmann equations, we investigate the thermalization of a two-species cold atomic gas confined either in a box or in an isotropic harmonic trap. We show that the thermalization times, by contrast to the…
