Itinerant ferromagnetism of two-dimensional repulsive fermions with Rabi coupling

We study a two-dimensional fermionic cloud of repulsive alkali-metal atoms characterized by two hyperfine states which are Rabi coupled. Within a variational Hartree–Fock scheme, we calculate analytically the ground-state energy of the system. Then we determine the conditions under which there is a...
