Averaged collision and reaction rates in a two-species gas of ultracold fermions
Averaged collision and reaction rates in a two-species gas of ultracold fermions
Reactive or elastic two-body collisions in an ultracold gas are affected by quantum statistics. In this paper, we study ensemble-averaged collision rates for a two-species fermionic gas. The two species may have different masses, densities, and temperatures. We investigate how averaged collision rates are affected by the presence of Fermi …
