Three-body contact for fermions. II. Non-degenerate limit
A fundamental quantity characterizing Fermi gases with zero-range interactions is the three-body contact $C_3$, which determines several observables including the number of nearby triplets of fermions and the three-body loss rate in cold atom experiments, as shown in a companion article. Here, we compute $C_3$ to leading order in the non-degenerate limit for the homogeneous gas with negative or infinite scattering length $a$. At $a=\infty$, using a wavefunction approach, we obtain the analytical expression of $C_3$, which has a remarkably slow $1/T^{0.22728}$ dependence on the temperature $T$. In the Feynman diagram technique, which we use for $a<0$, the correct three-body short-distance correlations emerge only after a non-trivial cancellation between leading order two-body and three-body correlations, and the resulting power-law scaling comes from the large-wavevector tail of the 3-body T-matrix, which we derive inspired by the analytical solution of the three-body problem at the unitary limit.
