Callahan","John Sous","Timothy C. Berkelbach"],"abstract":"We introduce coupled-cluster (CC) theory for the numerical study of the normal state of two-component, dilute Fermi gases with attractive, short-range interactions at zero temperature. We focus on CC theory with double excitations (CCD) and discuss its close relationship with -- and improvement upon -- the t-matrix approximation, i.e., the resummation of ladder diagrams via a random-phase approximation. We further discuss its relationship with Chevy's variational wavefunction ansatz for the Fermi polaron and argue that CCD is its natural extension to nonzero minority species concentrations. Studying normal state energetics for a range of interaction strengths below and above unitarity, we find that CCD yields good agreement with fixed-node diffusion Monte Carlo. We find that CCD does not converge for small polarizations and large interaction strengths, which we speculatively attribute to the nascent instability to a superfluid state.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.09216v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.09216v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"the-normal-state-of-attractive-fermi-gases","repo_url":"https://github.com/jamescallahan7/jmc_js_tcb_2022","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
