Zero Sound in Dipolar Fermi Gases

arXiv:0906.3753 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.81.033601

Abstract

We study the propagation of sound in a homogeneous dipolar gas at zero temperature, known as zero sound. We find that undamped sound propagation is possible only in a range of solid angles around the direction of polarization of the dipoles. Above a critical dipole moment, we find an unstable mode, by which the gas collapses locally perpendicular to the dipoles' direction.
