Magnetic properties and strong-coupling corrections in an ultracold fermi gas with population imbalance

We investigate magnetic properties of an ultracold Fermi gas with population imbalance. In the presence of population imbalance, the strong-coupling theory developed by Nozières and Schmitt-Rink (which is frequently referred to as the NSR theory, or Gaussian fluctuation theory) is known to give unphysical results in the BCS-BEC crossover region. We point out that this problem comes from how to treat pseudogap effects originating from pairing fluctuations and many-body corrections to the spin susceptibility. We also clarify how to overcome this problem by including higher order fluctuations beyond the ordinary T -matrix approximation. Calculated spin susceptibility based on our extended T -matrix approximation agrees well with the recent experiment on a 6Li Fermi gas.
