Abstract

Quantum Monte Carlo techniques are employed to study the properties of polarons in an ultracold Fermi gas, at $T=0$, and in the unitary regime using both a zero-range model and a square-well potential. For a fixed density, the potential range is varied and results are extrapolated and compared against a zero-range model. A discussion regarding the choice of an interacting potential with a finite range is presented. We compute the polaron effective mass, the polaron binding energy, and the effective coupling between them. The latter is obtained using the Landau-Pomeranchuk's weakly interacting quasiparticle model. The contact parameter is estimated by fitting the pair distribution function of atoms in different spin states.
