## Abstract

In a recent paper entitled "High temperature expansion applied to fermions near Feshbach resonance" (Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 160404 (2004)), Ho and Muller have demonstrated a remarkable similarity between its high and low temperature properties at resonance. The quantum second virial coefficient plays a crucial role in their analysis, and has a universal value at resonance. In this paper, we explore the connection between the quantum and classical second virial coefficients, and show that near a Feshbach resonance, an exact mapping from the quantum to classical form is possible. This gives rise to a scale independent inverse square potential for the classical second virial coefficient. It is suggested that it may be tested by measuring the isothermal compressibility of the gas on the repulsive side of the resonance.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
