Abstract

Recent experiments on imbalanced Fermi gases in ultracold atomic systems have raised interest in the physics of an impurity immersed in a Fermi sea, the so-called Fermi polaron. In particular, the internal energy of a Fermi polaron gives the threshold for a fully polarized normal phase. When partially polarized, the normal phase can be described quantitatively as a Fermi liquid of dilute polarons. We discuss a simple theory devised to describe dilute Fermi-polaron ensembles and show that an exact formula can be obtained for the dominant interaction between polarons. It is expressed solely in terms of a single polaron parameter. The physics of this interaction is identified as a signature of the Pauli exclusion principle. The comparison of this theory with experimental results shows a remarkable agreement up to the vicinity of the transition to the superfluid phase.
