Spin-polarized Fermi superfluids as Bose-Fermi mixtures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the strong-coupling Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) region where a Feshbach resonance gives rise to tightly bound dimer molecules, we show that a spin-polarized Fermi superfluid reduces to a simple Bose-Fermi mixture of Bose-condensed dimers and the leftover unpaired fermions. Using a many-body functional integral formalism, the Gaussian fluctuations give rise to an induced dimer-dimer interaction mediated by the unpaired fermions, with the dimer-fermion vertex being given by the (mean-field) Born approximation. Treating the pairing fluctuations to quartic order, we show how the action for a spin-polarized Fermi superfluid reduces to one for a Bose-Fermi mixture. This Bose-Fermi action includes an expression for the effective dimer-unpaired fermion interaction in a spin-polarized Fermi superfluid beyond the Born approximation, in the BEC limit. In the low-density limit, we show how this dimer-fermion interaction gives the $s$-wave scattering length ${a}_{\mathit{BF}}=1.18{a}_{F}$ (${a}_{F}$ is the $s$-wave fermion scattering length), a result first derived by Skorniakov and Ter-Martirosian in 1957 for three interacting fermions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
