Cooper pair turbulence in atomic Fermi gases
Cooper pair turbulence in atomic Fermi gases
We investigate under what conditions a uniform quench of a superfluid atomic Fermi gas leads to the emergence of spatial inhomogeneities. We demonstrate that, if the system is larger than the coherence length, the superfluid order parameter becomes spatially nonuniform. Spatial modulations develop through a parametric excitations of pairing modes …
