Abstract
Various quantities of an attractively interacting fermion system at the unitary limit are determined by extrapolating Monte Carlo results of low-density neutron matter. Smooth extrapolation in terms of ( is the Fermi momentum, and is the scattering length) is found with the quantities examined: the ground-state energy, the pairing gap at , and the critical temperature of the normal-to-superfluid phase transition. We emphasize proximity of the physics of low-density neutron matter to that at the unitary limit. The extrapolated quantities are in a reasonable agreement with those in the literature.
