We compute the momentum distribution of a homogeneous Fermi gas at unitarity in the normal phase within the framework of the non-self-consistent T-matrix approximation with particle-hole fluctuation. From the large-momentum behavior of momentum distribution, we obtain the contact for the unitary Fermi gas. We also compare our results with experimental data and other theoretical predictions.
The contact plays an important role in the study of ultracold atoms. We determine the contact from the high-frequency asymptotic behavior of radio-frequency spectrum for a homogeneous Fermi gas at unitarity in the normal phase. The contact is obtained within the framework of the non-self-consistent T-matrix approximation with particle–hole fluctuation.
In this paper, the momentum-resolved radio-frequency spectra of a unitary Fermi gas in the normal phase are presented and analyzed on the basis of the framework of the non-self-consistent T-matrix approximation with the extended Gorkov and Melik-Barkhudarov (GMB) approximation. We report the calculated occupied spectral intensity and energy distribution curves for different temperatures above T c . Our results indicate the existence of pseudogap phenomenon which would be helpful for further understanding of the pseudogap in high-temperature superconductivity.
