Theory for p-Wave Feshbach Molecules
We determine the physical properties of \emph{p}-wave Feshbach molecules in
doubly spin-polarized K and find excellent agreement with recent
experiments. We show that these molecules have a large probability to be in
the closed channel or bare molecular state responsible for the Feshbach
resonance. In the superfluid state this allows for observation of Rabi
oscillations between the molecular and atomic components of the Bose-Einstein
condensed pairs, which contains a characteristic signature of the quantum phase
transition that occurs as a function of applied magnetic field.Comment: Replaced with published versio
Sarma Phase in Trapped Unbalanced Fermi Gases
We consider a trapped unbalanced Fermi gas at nonzero temperatures where the
superfluid Sarma phase is stable. We determine in particular the phase
boundaries between the superfluid, normal, and phase separated regions of the
trapped unbalanced Fermi mixture. We show that the physics of the Sarma phase
is sufficient to understand the recent observations of Zwierlein et al.
[Science 311, 492 (2006); Nature 442, 54 (2006)] and indicate how the apparent
contradictions between this experiment and the experiment of Partridge et al.
[Science 311, 503 (2006)] may be resolved.Comment: Replaced with published version; 4 pages, 3 figure
Two ultracold atoms in a completely anisotropic trap
As a limiting case of ultracold atoms trapped in deep optical lattices, we
consider two interacting atoms trapped in a general anisotropic harmonic
oscillator potential, and obtain exact solutions of the Schrodinger equation
for this system. The energy spectra for different geometries of the trapping
potential are compared.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure
Renormalization Group Theory for the Imbalanced Fermi Gas
We formulate a wilsonian renormalization group theory for the imbalanced
Fermi gas. The theory is able to recover quantitatively well-established
results in both the weak-coupling and the strong-coupling (unitarity) limit. We
determine for the latter case the line of second-order phase transitions of the
imbalanced Fermi gas and in particular the location of the tricritical point.
We obtain good agreement with the recent experiments of Y. Shin {\it et al}.

Resonances in rotationally inelastic scattering of OH() with helium and neon
We present detailed calculations on resonances in rotationally and spin-orbit
inelastic scattering of OH (X\,^2\Pi, j=3/2, F_1, f) radicals with He and Ne
atoms. We calculate new \emph{ab initio} potential energy surfaces for OH-He,
and the cross sections derived from these surfaces compare favorably with the
recent crossed beam scattering experiment of Kirste \emph{et al.} [Phys. Rev. A
\textbf{82}, 042717 (2010)]. We identify both shape and Feshbach resonances in
the integral and differential state-to-state scattering cross sections, and we
discuss the prospects for experimentally observing scattering resonances using
Stark decelerated beams of OH radicals.Comment: 14 pages, 15 Figure

Thermodynamics of Trapped Imbalanced Fermi Gases at Unitarity
We present a theory for the low-temperature properties of a resonantly
interacting Fermi mixture in a trap, that goes beyond the local-density
approximation. The theory corresponds essentially to a Landau-Ginzburg-like
approach that includes self-energy effects to account for the strong
interactions at unitarity. We show diagrammatically how these self-energy
effects arise from fluctuations in the superfluid order parameter. Gradient
terms of the order parameter are included to account for inhomogeneities. This
approach incorporates the state-of-the-art knowledge of the homogeneous mixture
with a population imbalance exactly and gives good agreement with the
experimental density profiles of Shin et al. [Nature 451, 689 (2008)]. This
allows us to calculate the universal surface tension of the interface between
the equal-density superfluid and the partially polarized normal state of the
mixture. We also discuss the possibility of a metastable state to explain the
deformation of the superfluid core that is seen in the experiment of Partridge
et al. [Science 311, 503 (2006)].Comment: 26 pages, 7 figures, contribution to Lecture Notes in Physics
