Second root of dilute Bose-Fermi mixtures

Abstract

We discuss an equilibrium mean-field properties of mixtures consisting of bosons and spin-polarized fermionic atoms with a point-like interaction in an arbitrary dimension $2<d<4$. Particularly, we discuss except the standard weak-coupling limit of the system with slightly depleted Bose condensate and almost ideal Fermi gas, the (meta)stable phase with dimers composed exactly of one boson and one fermion. The peculiarities of the fermion-dimer and the boson-dimer three-body effective interactions and their impact on the thermodynamic stability of the dilute Bose-Fermi mixtures are elucidated.
