Spectroscopy in CFT, T 0 solves similar puzzles

•The bound states are much lighter than quasiparticles

Strongly coupled atomsStrongly coupled atoms

What can a relation be, between cold fermionic atoms and two-
component plasmas?• Let us rename atoms:
spin up=“+”, spin down=“-”• + and – attract => via Feshbach
resonance, trying to form a Cooper pair/molecule
• ++,-- repel each other =>Via ``Pauli repulsion” as identical fermions

Smooth transition from fermi (BCS) to bose (BEC)
(A.Legett,1985)
• The main variable x=1/apF
X>>1Fermi side,Attraction only near fermi surfaceBCS and Cooper pairs
X close to 0The Feshbach Resonance,Here we expect thestrongly coupled liquid
X<<-1Weakly attractive, molecular bound statesWhich at zero energy isBose-condensed

``Universality” at the resonance(basically, just a dimensional analysis: Heiselberg)
• As a! 1 it cannot appear in any answer, so we are left with m,n,~
• For EoS E/N= (3/5)~2 n2/3/m is the only choice and ¼ .5 at the resonance
• Naïve approach (Stoof…): as position of the resonance moves down, Fermi sphere diminishes and vanishes at the resonance, so why is not 1?

My quick theory of Pauli repulsion due to path antisymmetrization
Even for ideal case, the node surface enclose a fermionIt is the same in molecular regime (b) but now p2/2(2m)Leading to 1-¼ 1/2
Elliptic flow with ultracold trapped Li6 atoms, a=> infinity regime via the so called Feshbach resonance
The system is extremely dilute, but it still goes into a hydro regime, with an elliptic flow: cross section changes by about 10^6 or so! Is it a good liquid? How good?
The coolest thing on Earth, T=10 nK or 10^(-12) eV can actually produce a
Micro-Bang !

Viscosity: a naïve approach
AS a! 1 this gets meaningless
``Unitarity limited” regime: <max=4/k2
is also naïve as we will see: the interaction is not a 2-body scattering at all
Shuryak at BNL, Dec.2004
Viscosity and universality
• There is no need to specify constituents or idea of a mean free path:
• Hydro: damping of sound waves can provide a definition
•For cold atoms • / ~ n=
Should be the universal dimensionless constant•Scattering rate must be -1» ~/F ….

What is the smallest viscosity possible?

• Elliptic flow in principle provide a limit Elliptic flow in principle provide a limit since it agrees with since it agrees with ideal hydro, ideal hydro, =0=0

The r-mode: conflicting results
The curves: hydro with the same EoS,
Agrees with Duke results but not Insbrook one, some ocasional resonance?
Hydro works for up to 1000 oscillations! Hydro works for up to 1000 oscillations!

Very large cross sections are needed to reproduce the magnitude of v2!
Huge cross sections!!

Pairing of quasiparticles in QGP
• Marginal states right in the RHIC domain
(ES+Zahed,2003)
• Lattice evidences: charmonium and light quark mesons
• New picture of EoS: a mixture of quasiparticles with bound pairs, including
colored ones (ES+Zahed, 2004)
New QCD New QCD Phase Phase Diagram, Diagram, which which includes includes ``zero binding ``zero binding lines” at lines” at which which can can be large! be large! (ES+I.Zahed (ES+I.Zahed hep-ph/03072hep-ph/030726)6)

Fitting F to screened Coulomb
• Fit from Bielefld group hep-lat/0406036
Note that the Debye radius corresponds to``normal” (still enhanced by factor 2) coupling, while the overall strength of the potential is much larger
Shuryak at BNL, Dec.2004
How many bound states at T>Tc?ES+I.Zahed, hep-ph/0403127
• In QGP there is no confinement => Hundreds of colored channels have bound states as well!

The pressure puzzle (GENERAL) Well known lattice prediction
(numerical calculation, lattice QCD, Karsch et al) the pressure as a function of T (normalized to that for free quarks and gluons)
•This turned out to be the most misleading picture we had, fooling us for nearly 20 years
•p/p(SB)=.8 from about .3 GeV to very large value. Interpreted as an argument that interaction is relatively weak (0.2) and can be resumed, although pQCD series are bad…
BUT: we recently learned that storng coupling leads to about 0.8 as well!
Shuryak at BNL, Dec.2004
(The pressure puzzle, cont.)
• How quasiparticles, which according to direct lattice measurements are heavy (Mq,Mg = 3T) (Karsch et al) can provide enough pressure? (exp(-3)»1/20)
• (The same problems appears in N=4 SUSY YM, where it is parametric, exp(-1/2) for large ´ g2NcÀ 1)
Shuryak at BNL, Dec.2004
The pressure puzzle is resolved(ES and I.Zahed, 2004)

Can we verify it experimentally?Dileptons from sQGP: at 1.7 and
at about 2 GeV? Casalderrey+ES,hep-ph
Shuryak at BNL, Dec.2004
Conclusions:
QGP:
• EoS is p/pideal gas ¼ .8 at T>2Tc
• QGP seems to be near-perfect fluid
/~ s » .1 » 1/(4)
Cold atoms:pressure¼ .5 at resonance•trapped atoms in a strong coupling regime is a very good liquid as well! /~ n» .5§ .3
Shuryak at BNL, Dec.2004
Conclusions (continue)
Marginal states in both cases,
In QGP at the endpoints of binary states
``New spectroscopy”: In sQGP many old mesons plus » 300 of colored binary states. May lead to large scattering lengths
• In both cases we badly need a theory of viscosity!
