The Pauli principle in collective motion: Reimagining and reinterpreting Cooper pairs, the Fermi sea, Pauli blocking and superfluidity

D. K. Watson

Typically visualized from an independent particle viewpoint, the Pauli principle's role in collective motion is analyzed leading to a reimagination of the microscopic dynamics unde…

Exploring the transition from BCS to unitarity without Cooper pairs: the Pauli principle, normal modes and superfluidity

D. K. Watson

The transition from the weakly interacting BCS regime to the strongly interacting unitary regime is explored for ultracold trapped Fermi gases assuming a normal mode description of…

Analytic normal mode frequencies for N identical particles: The microscopic dynamics underlying the emergence and stability of excitation gaps from BCS to unitarity

D. K. Watson

The frequencies of the analytic normal modes for N identical particles are studied as a function of system parameters from the weakly interacting BCS regime to the strongly interac…

Normal modes for N identical particles: A study of the evolution of collective behavior from few-body to many-body

D. K. Watson

Normal mode dynamics are ubiquitous underlying the motions of diverse systems from rotating stars to crystal structures. These behaviors are composed of simple collective motions o…

Generalization of the Fermi Pseudopotential

Trang T. Le, Zach Osman, D. K. Watson +2

Introduced eighty years ago, the Fermi pseudopotential has been a powerful concept in multiple fields of physics. It replaces the detailed shape of a potential by a delta-function…

The Pauli principle, normal modes and superfluidity: the emergence of collective organizational phenomena

D. K. Watson

Understanding the emergence of collective organizational phenomena is a major goal in many fields of physics from condensed matter to cosmology. Using a recently introduced manybod…
