Description
We analyze the ground state of the two-component gas of trapped ultracold fermionic atoms. We neglect the forces between atoms in the same hyperfine state (the same component). For the case when the forces between distinguishable atoms (i.e., atoms in different hyperfine states) are repulsive (positive mutual scatteringlength), we find the existence of critical interaction strength above which one atomic fraction expels the other from the center of the trap. When atoms from different components attract each other (negative mutual scattering length) the ground state of the system dramatically changes its structure for strong enough attraction--the Cooper pairs built of atoms in different hyperfine states appear
