文摘

We explore the structure of momentum distributions of Fermi liquids such as completely polarized ³He, unpolarized liquid ³He, and nuclear matter at nonzero temperatures. The study employs correlated density matrix theory and adapts the algorithm to deal with spin- and isospin-dependent correlations. The analysis is based on the factor decomposition of the one-body reduced density matrix. The decomposition permits to distinguish between statistical correlations and dynamic (direct) correlations. Together with the concept of renormalized fermions the formal results open the pathway to investigate the thermal boundaries of normal Fermi phases within the correlated density matrix theory. We also discuss possible transitions from normal phases to anomalous fermion phases triggered by statistical correlations or by periodic phase–phase structures.
