Unitary Fermi gas at finite temperature in the epsilon expansion

Abstract

Thermodynamics of the unitary Fermi gas at finite temperature is investigated from the perspective of the expansion over epsilon=4-d with d being the dimensionality of space. We show that the thermodynamics is dominated by bosonic excitations in the low temperature region T<<Tc. Analytic formulas for the thermodynamic functions as functions of the temperature are derived to the lowest order in epsilon in this region. In the high temperature region where T Tc, bosonic and fermionic quasiparticles are excited. We determine the critical temperature Tc of the superfluid phase transition and the thermodynamic functions around Tc to the leading and next-to-leading orders in epsilon.
