The Non-universal behaviour of Cold Fermi Condensates with Narrow Feshbach Resonances
In this paper we construct an effective field theory for a condensate of cold
Fermi atoms whose scattering is controlled by a narrow Feshbach resonance. We
show how, from first principles, it permits a hydrodynamic description of the
BEC-BCS crossover from which the equation of state, intimately related to the
speed of sound, can be derived. Specifically, we stress the non-universal
behaviour of the equation of state at the unitary limit of infinite scattering
length that arises when either, or both, of the range of the inter-atomic force
and the scale of the molecular field become large.Comment: 7 pages, there is no differences in results between this (v2) and the
older version (v1), but v2 makes the nature of the non-canonical behavior of
the EOS cleare
