Special Kadanoff Seminar: The large-charge EFT for non-relativistic systems. - Silas Beane, University of Washington

12:30 pm MCP - 3rd Floor Atrium

The large-charge EFT for non-relativistic systems.

A brief review will be given of the large-charge effective field theory (EFT), which is a non-relativistic conformal field theory which describes the superfluid state of unitary fermions in the far infrared.  I will then describe recent work which considers Schrödinger symmetry deformations of the large-charge EFT due to finite scattering length and effective-range effects. Several topical applications will be considered, including special nuclear reactions with low-energy neutrons in the final state, and the excitation spectrum of ultracold Fermi gases at and near unitarity.
