Dear all,
the seminar on Monday May 2, 1:00 pm will take place in room F224/225.
Also, note that dessert will be served, in honor of Hiroyuki Kamano, who
will be leaving our theory group. The seminar talk will therefore start
slightly late. Here is the information again:

*The Imbalanced Fermi Gas at Unitarity*
Lattice field theory is a useful tool for studying strongly interacting
theories in condensed matter physics. A prominent example is the unitary
Fermi gas: a two-component system of fermions interacting with divergent
scattering length. With Monte Carlo methods this system can be studied
from first principles. In the presence of an imbalance (unequal number
of particles in the two components) a sign problem arises, which makes
conventional algorithms inapplicable. I will show how to apply
reweighting techniques to generalize the recently developed worm
algorithm to the imbalanced case, and present results for the critical
temperature and other thermodynamic observables at the critical point,
namely the chemical potential, the energy per particle and the contact
density. I will also present some preliminary results for these
observables at temperatures beyond the critical point.
