Prospects for anisotropic superfluidity in a Fermi gas of dysprosium

The possibility of obtaining superfluid phases for a Fermi gas of dysprosium with a magnetic dipole – dipole interaction is discussed. The obstacles and possible solutions are shown. The required phases are similar to the A1 phase and the polar β phase in 3 He. It is expected that in dysprosium, the macroscopic properties of the phase will be determined by the symmetry of the pair interactions. It is assumed to observe the kinetics of phase formation and spontaneous choice between two energy-degenerate phases with different projections of the orbital angular momentum.
