Effective Mass Calculations for Two-dimensional Gas of Dipolar Fermions

We consider a two-dimensional system of ultracold dipolar fermions with dipole moments aligned in the perpendicular direction. We use the static structure factor information from Fermi-Hypernetted-Chain calculations to obtain the effective many-body dipole–dipole interaction and calculate the many-body effective mass of the system within the G 0 W approximation to the self-energy. A large cancellation between different contributions to the self-energy results in a weak dependence of the effective mass on the interaction strength over a large range of coupling constants.
