Density and stability in ultracold dilute boson-fermion mixtures

We analyze in detail recent experiments on ultracold dilute ⁸⁷Rb–⁴⁰K mixtures in Hamburg and in Florence within a mean-field theory. To this end we determine how the stationary bosonic and fermionic density profiles in this mixture depend in the Thomas-Fermi limit on the respective particle numbers. Furthermore, we investigate how the observed stability of the Bose-Fermi mixture with respect to collapse is crucially related to the value of the interspecies s-wave scattering length.

Topological properties of one-dimensional hardcore Bose-Fermi mixture

We study the topological properties of a one-dimensional （1D） hardcore Bose-Fermi mixture using the exact diagonalization method. We firstly add a hardcore boson to a fermionic system and by examining the edge states we find that the quasi-particle manifests the topological properties of the system. Then we study a mixture with 7 fermions and 1 boson. We find that the mixture also exhibits topological properties and its behaviors are similar to that of the corresponding fermionic system. We present a qualitative explanation to understand such behaviors using the mapping between a hardcore boson and a spinless fermion. These results show the existence of topological properties in a 1D hardcore Bose-Fermi mixture and may be realized using cold atoms trapped in optical lattices experimentally.     

High-temperature atomic superfluidity in lattice Bose-Fermi mixtures

We consider atomic Bose-Fermi mixtures in optical lattices and study the superfluidity of fermionic atoms due to s-wave pairing induced by boson-fermion interactions. We prove that the induced fermion-fermion coupling is always attractive if the boson-boson on-site interaction is repulsive, and predict the existence of an enhanced BEC-BCS crossover as the strength of the lattice potential is varied. We show that for direct on-site fermion-fermion repulsion, the induced attraction can give rise to superfluidity via s-wave pairing at striking variance with the case of pure systems of fermionic atoms with direct repulsive interactions.     

Dynamics of an Ultracold Bose Gas in Funnel-Shaped Potential

In this paper we develop a variational theory to study the dynamicproperties of ultracold Bose gas in a funnel external potential. We obtain one-dimensional nonlinear equation which describes the dynamics of transverse tight confined bosonic gas from three-dimension to one-dimension, and find one-dimensional s-wave scattering length which depends on the shape oftransverse confining potential. If the funnel trapping potential is strong enough at zero temperature, all transverse excitations are frozen. We find the dynamic equation which describes the Tonks-Girardeau gas and present a qualitative analysis of the experimental accessibility of the Tonks-Girardeau gas with funnel-trapped alkalic atoms.     

Collisional stability of fermionic Feshbach molecules

Using a Feshbach resonance, we create ultracold fermionic molecules starting from a Bose-Fermi atom gas mixture. The resulting mixture of atoms and weakly bound molecules provides a rich system for studying few-body collisions because of the variety of atomic collision partners for molecules; either bosonic, fermionic, or distinguishable atoms. Inelastic loss of the molecules near the Feshbach resonance is dramatically affected by the quantum statistics of the colliding particles and the scattering length. In particular, we observe a molecule lifetime as long as 100 ms near the Feshbach resonance.     

Measurement of S-Wave Scattering Length between ~6Li and ~(88)Sr Atoms Using Interspecies Thermalization in an Optical Dipole Trap

We report the creation of the first mixture of ~6 Li and ~(88) Sr atoms in an optical dipole trap. Using this mixture,a measurement of the interspecies thermalization process is carried out and the previously unknown interspecies s-wave scattering length between ~6 Li and ~(88) Sr atoms is extracted to be |~(a6) Li-~(88) Sr| =(380_(-100)~(+160))a_0 with a_0 being the Bohr radius from the rate of interspecies thermalization.

Sympathetic cooling in an optically trapped mixture of alkali and spin-singlet atoms

We report on the realization of a stable mixture of ultracold lithium and ytterbium atoms confined in a far-off-resonance optical dipole trap. We observe sympathetic cooling of 6Li by 174Yb and extract the s-wave scattering length magnitude |a(6Li-174Yb)|=(13±3)a0 from the rate of interspecies thermalization. Using forced evaporative cooling of 174Yb, we achieve reduction of the 6Li temperature to below the Fermi temperature, purely through interspecies sympathetic cooling.     

Realization of a strongly interacting Bose-Fermi mixture from a two-component Fermi gas

We show the emergence of a strongly interacting Bose-Fermi mixture from a two-component Fermi mixture with population imbalance. By analyzing in situ density profiles of 6Li atoms in the BCS-BEC crossover regime, we identify a critical interaction strength, beyond which all minority atoms pair up with majority atoms and form a Bose condensate. This is the regime where the system can be effectively described as a boson-fermion mixture. We determine the dimer-fermion and dimer-dimer scattering lengths and beyond-mean-field contributions. Our study realizes a gedanken experiment of bosons immersed in a Fermi sea of one of their constituents, revealing the composite nature of the bosons.
