Abstract

We investigate the collective excitations of a harmonically trapped superfluid Fermi gas at varying coupling strengths across a BCS-BEC crossover. Using a hydrodynamic approach, we solve analytically the eigenvalue problem of collective modes and provide explicit expressions for all eigenvalues and eigenfunctions, which are valid for both BCS and BEC limits and also for the whole crossover regime. Both spherical- and axial-symmetric traps are taken into account, and the features of these collective modes in the BCS-BEC crossover are discussed and compared with available experimental and numerical data.
