Abstract

We apply the closed time-path formalism to evaluate the dynamics of the BCS transition to the superfluid state in trapped atomic 6Li. We find that the Fokker-Planck equation for the probability distribution of the order parameter is, sufficiently close to the critical temperature, identical to the equation that describes the switching on of a single-mode laser.
