Exploring the order parameter symmetry of p-wave Fermi condensates
  We discuss the time-of-flight expansion of dilute p-wave Fermi condensates on the BEC side of Feshbach resonances, as a way to extract information about the order parameter symmetry for superfluidity. We show that the cloud profile is in general sensitive to the interaction strength between fermions, the magnitude and direction of external magnetic fields, and to the angular momentum projection of the order parameter. In particular, due to the anisotropic nature of p-wave interactions we show that the time-of-flight expansion of a p-wave superfluid is anisotropic even if the superfluid is confined to a completely isotropic trap, unlike the case of Bose or s-wave Fermi condensates, which under the same circumstances expand isotropically. Furthermore, we demonstrate that expanding p-wave superfluids released from axially symmetric traps experience anisotropy inversions, where the aspect ratio between the axial and radial directions change during expansion, while the axial symmetry can also be lost reflecting the spatial anisotropy of the underlying interaction.
