Low temperatures shear viscosity of a two-component dipolar Fermi gas with unequal population

摘要

By using the Green's functions method and linear response theory we calculate the shear viscosity of a two-component dipolar Fermi gas with population imbalance (spin polarized) in the low temperatures limit. In the strong-coupling Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) region where a Feshbach resonance gives rise to tightly bound dimer molecules, a spin-polarized Fermi superfluid reduces to a simple Bose-Fermi mixture of Bose-condensed dimers and the leftover unpaired fermions (atoms). The interactions between dimer-atom, dimer-dimer, and atom-atom take into account to the viscous relaxation time (tau(n)). By evaluating the self-energies in the ladder approximation we determine the relaxation times due to dimer-atom (tau(DA)), dimer-dimer (tau(cDD), tau(dDD)), and atom-atom (tau(AA)) interactions. We will show that relaxation rates due to these interactions tau(-1)(DA), tau(-)(cDD)1, tau(-1)(dDD), and tau(-1)(AA) have T-2, T-4, e(-E/kBT) (E is the spectrum of the dimer atoms), and T-3/2 behavior respectively in the low temperature limit (T -> 0) and consequently, the atom-atom interaction plays the dominant role in the shear viscosity in this rang of temperatures. For small polarization (tau(DA), tau(AA) tau(cDD), tau(dDD)), the low temperatures shear viscosity is determined by contact interaction between dimers and the shear viscosity varies as T-5 which has the same behavior as the viscosity of other superfluid systems such as superfluid neutron stars, and liquid helium.
