Anomalous loss behavior in a single-component Fermi gas close to a p-wave Feshbach resonance

We theoretically investigate three-body losses in a single-component Fermi gas near a p-wave Feshbach resonance in the interacting, nonunitary regime. We extend the cascade model introduced by Waseem et al. [M. Waseem, J. Yoshida, T. Saito, and T. Mukaiyama, Phys. Rev. A 99, 052704 (2019)] to descri...

Description
Summary:We theoretically investigate three-body losses in a single-component Fermi gas near a p-wave Feshbach resonance in the interacting, nonunitary regime. We extend the cascade model introduced by Waseem et al. [M. Waseem, J. Yoshida, T. Saito, and T. Mukaiyama, Phys. Rev. A 99, 052704 (2019)] to describe the elastic and inelastic collision processes. We find that the loss behavior exhibits a n3 and an anomalous n2 density dependence for a ratio of elastic-to-inelastic collision rate larger and smaller than 1, respectively. The corresponding evolutions of the energy distribution show collisional cooling or evolution toward low-energetic nonthermalized steady states, respectively. These findings are particularly relevant for understanding atom loss and the energetic evolution of ultracold gases of fermionic lithium atoms in their ground state.
