Highly polarized Fermi gases in two dimensions
Highly polarized Fermi gases in two dimensions
We investigate the highly polarized limit of a two-dimensional Fermi gas, where we effectively have a single spin-down impurity atom immersed in a spin-up Fermi sea. By constructing variational wave functions for the impurity, we map out the ground state phase diagram as a function of mass ratio ${m}_{\ensuremath{\uparrow}}/{m}_{\ensuremath{\downarrow}}$ and …
