FFLO vs Bose-Fermi mixture in polarized 1D Fermi gas on a Feshbach resonance: a 3-body study (2009)

Abstract
We study the three-fermion problem within a 1D model of a Feshbach resonance in order to gain insight into how the FFLO-like state at small negative scattering lengths evolves into a Bose-Fermi mixture at small positive scattering lengths. The FFLO state possesses an oscillating superfluid correlation function, while in a Bose-Fermi mixture correlations are monotonic. We find that this behavior is is already present at the 3-body level. We present an exact study of the 3-body problem, and gain extra insights by considering worldlines of a path integral Monte-Carlo calculation.. Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures
