Mesoscopic Fermi gas in a harmonic trap
arXiv:cond-mat/9710086 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.57.1253
Abstract
We study the thermodynamical properties of a mesoscopic Fermi gas in view of recent possibilities to trap ultracold atoms in a harmonic potential. We focus on the effects of shell closure for finite small atom numbers. The dependence of the chemical potential, the specific heat and the density distribution on particle number and temperature is obtained. Isotropic and anisotropic traps are compared. Possibilities of experimental observations are discussed.
