Crossover from Fulde-Ferrell state to Larkin-Ovchinnikov state in cold fermion gases

Description

We study an effect of rotation on the two component Fermi superfluid gases with population imbalance in a toroidal trap. We investigate how the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state is changed by the rotation using the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation in the quasi-one-dimensional regime. We find that two novel FFLO phases, i.e., the half quantum vortex state and the intermediate state of Fulde-Ferrell (FF) state and Larkin-Ovchinnikov (LO) state, are stabilized by the rotation. The phase diagram for the FF state, LO state, intermediate state, and half quantum vortex state is shown in T-Φ plane. We show the order parameter of these states.
