Abstract

Transport coefficients of superfluid dipolar Fermi gas are calculated by using the Boltzmann equation approach. The interaction between Bogoliubov-Bogoliubov quasiparticles in the collision integral is considered in binary process. The shear viscosities n_xz↑ = n_yy↑,n_xy↑; n_xz↑ ≈ n_yz↑; and n_u↑ are proportional to T^-6; T^-8; and T^-10 , respectively. Also, we have found the elements of the diffusive thermal conductivities K_xx↑= K_yy↑ with temperature dependency T^-5 and K_u↑ which is proportional to T^-7 and other components which are zero.
