Abstract

We theoretically investigate the recent photoemission-type experiment on 40K Fermi gases done by JILA group. Including pairing fluctuations within a strong-coupling T-matrix theory, as well as effects of a harmonic trap within the local density approximation, we calculate photoemission spectra in the BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer)-BEC (Bose-Einstein condensation) crossover region. We show that the energy resolution of the current photoemission experiment is enough to detect the pseudogap phenomenon. We also show how the pseudogap in single-particle excitations continuously changes into the superfluid gap, as one decreases the temperature below the superfluid phase transition temperature. Our results would be useful for the study of single-particle properties of ultracold Fermi gases in the BCS-BEC crossover.
