Abstract
We study the equilibrium properties of a dipolar Fermi gas at finite temperatures. We introduce a variational ansatz for the phase-space distribution function that can describe the deformation in both real and momentum space. The effect of dipole--dipole interactions on the thermal equilibrium is discussed with particular emphasis on the deformation in momentum space. We examine the stability of the system by varying the temperature, trap aspect ratio, and the dipole moment. In addition, we discuss how the deformation in both real and momentum space can be observed in the high-temperature regime.
