Single-particle momentum distribution of Efimov states in noninteger dimensions

Abstract

We studied the single-particle momentum distribution of mass-imbalanced Efimov states embedded in noninteger dimensions. The contact parameters, which can be related to the thermodynamic properties of the gas, were calculated from the high momentum tail of the single particle densities. We studied the dependence of the contact parameters with the progressive change of the noninteger dimension, ranging from three (D=3) to two (D=2) dimensions. Within this interval, we move from the (D=3) regime where the Efimov discrete scale symmetry drives the physics, until close to the critical dimension, which depends on the mass imbalance, where the continuum scale symmetry takes place. We found that the two- and three-body contacts grow significantly in magnitude with the decrease of the noninteger dimension towards the critical dimension, impacting observables of resonantly interacting trapped Bose gases.
