Mean-field analysis of the stability of a K-Rb Fermi-Bose mixture

arXiv:cond-mat/0306279 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.68.043626

Abstract

We compare the experimental stability diagram of a Fermi-Bose mixture of K-40 and Rb-87 atoms with attractive interaction to the predictions of a mean-field theoretical model. We discuss how this comparison can be used to give a better estimate of the interspecies scattering length, which is currently known from collisional measurements with larger uncertainty.
