Take-Home Message• RF/Microwave spectroscopy does tell you details of the many-body state– Weak coupling -- density
– Strong coupling -- complicated by final-state effects
• Bimodal RF spectra in trapped Fermi gases not directly connected to pairing (trap effect)

Why is density histogram useful?Optical absorption: column density
obscures interesting features -- ex. Mott Plateaus -- digression

Bose-Mott physicsOptical lattice:
Weak interactions: atoms delocalize -- superfluid-- Poisson number distribution
Strong interactions: suppress hopping -- insulator
Kinetic energy from hopping dominates
Energy cost of creating particle-hole pair exceeds hopping

Summary of spectroscopy• Weak coupling
– peak mostly shifted (proportional to density)– long tails (probably unobservable)
• final interaction = initial– Peak sharp and unshifted
• General– No simple universal picture
• sum rules are ambiguous
– Important for experiments on strongly interacting fermionic Lithium atoms

Outline
• Homogeneous lineshapes within BCS model of superfluid
• Crude model for trapped gas– Highly polarized limit (normal state)– Demonstrates universality of line shape
(what is RF lineshape -- and what does it tell us)

Variational ModelIdea: include all excitations consisting of single quasiparticles quasiholes
“coherent contribution” -- should capture low energy structure
a-b pairs -- excite from b to c
Neglects multi-quasiparticle intermediate states
[Exact if (final int)=(initial int) or if (final it)=0]
