Ultracold two-component fermionic gases with a magnetic field gradient near a feshbach resonance

We study theoretically the ultracold two-component fermionic gases when a gradient magnetic field is used to tune the scattering length between atoms. For 6Li at the narrow resonance B0=543.25 G, it is shown that the gases would be in a coexistence of the regimes of BCS, Bose-Einstein condensation (...

Zusammenfassung:We study theoretically the ultracold two-component fermionic gases when a gradient magnetic field is used to tune the scattering length between atoms. For 6Li at the narrow resonance B0=543.25 G, it is shown that the gases would be in a coexistence of the regimes of BCS, Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC), and unitarity limit with the present experimental technique. In the case of thermal and chemical equilibrium, we investigate the density distribution of the gases and show that a double peak of the density distribution can give us a clear evidence for the coexistence of BCS, BEC, and unitarity limit.
