Diffusion in superfluid Fermi mixtures: General formalism
arXiv:2309.03313 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.108.025814
Abstract
With neutron star applications in mind, we developed a theory of diffusion in mixtures of superfluid, strongly interacting Fermi liquids. By employing the Landau theory of Fermi liquids, we determined matrices that relate the currents of different particle species, their momentum densities, and the partial entropy currents to each other. Using these results, and applying the quasiclassical kinetic equation for the Bogoliubov excitations, we derived general expressions for the diffusion coefficients, which properly incorporate all the Fermi liquid effects and depend on the momentum transfer rates between different particle species. The developed framework can be used as a starting point for systematic calculations of the diffusion coefficients (as well as other kinetic coefficients) in superfluid Fermi mixtures, particularly, in superfluid neutron stars.
