Description

We study the crossover from BEC to BCS pairing for dilute systems but with a realistic finite-range interaction. We exhibit the changes in the excitation spectrum that provide a clean qualitative distinction between the two limits. We also study how the dilute system converges to the results from a zero-range pseudopotential derived by Leggett
