Zero sound in a quantum gas of spin-3/2 atoms with multipole exchange interaction
Abstract
In the context of quantum gases, we obtain a many-body Hamiltonian for spin-3/2 atoms with general multipole (spin, quadrupole, and octupole) exchange interaction by employing the apparatus of irreducible spherical tensor operators. This Hamiltonian implies the finite-range interaction, whereas, for zero-range (contact) potentials parameterized by the $s$-wave scattering length, the multipole exchange interaction becomes irrelevant. Following the reduced description method for quantum systems, we derive the quantum kinetic equation for spin-3/2 atoms in a magnetic field and apply it to examine the high-frequency oscillations known as zero sound.
