The pairing fluctuation induces a pseudogap in the excitation spectrum of nucleon in both superfluid and normal phases. The critical temperature of superfluid transition was calculated. It differs from the BCS result remarkably when density is low. We also computed the specific heat which shows a nearly ideal BEC type temperature dependence at low density but a BCS type behavior at high density. This qualitative change of the temperature dependence of specific heat may serve as a thermodynamic signal for BCS-BEC crossover.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2010-03-26T23:00:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "21.65.-f", "26.60.-c", "74.20.-z", "21.30.Fe" ], "keywords": [ "symmetric nuclear matter", "bcs-bec crossover", "pairing fluctuation", "finite temperature", "ideal bec type temperature dependence" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review C", "year": 2010, "month": "Mar", "volume": 81, "number": 3, "pages": "034007" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 844336, "adsabs": "2010PhRvC..81c4007H" } } }
