Already a simple truncation shows that for large scattering length $|a|$ the lowest energy state is a "trion" (or trimer) bound state of three atoms. At the location of the resonance, for $|a|\to\infty$, we find an infinite set of trimer bound states, with exponentially decreasing binding energy. This feature was pointed out by Efimov. It arises from limit cycle scaling, which also leads to a periodic dependence of the three body scattering coupling on $\ln |a|$. Extending our findings by continuity to nonzero density and temperature we find that a "trion phase" separates a BEC and a BCS phase, with interesting quantum phase transitions for T=0.9 pages, 4 figures, minor changes, reference addedSuperconductivityFunctional renormalization for trion formation in ultracold fermion gasestext
