Anisotropic pairing creates stable, gapless excitations in a homogeneous state. This breached pairing state coexists superfluid and normal fluids, even with weak p-wave coupling.

Area of Science:

  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Quantum Materials

Background:

  • Superfluidity and normal fluid coexistence is a key phenomenon in quantum systems.
  • Understanding exotic pairing mechanisms is crucial for novel quantum states.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Investigate the implications of anisotropic pairing between fermion species.
  • Characterize the resulting quantum state and its stability.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical analysis of anisotropic pairing interactions.
  • Examination of fermion species with differing Fermi momenta.

Main Results:

  • Anisotropic pairing generates two-dimensional regions of gapless excitations.
  • A spatially homogeneous state emerges, exhibiting coexisting superfluid and normal fluid components.
