Abstract:

We investigate excitation spectra of neutral and charged p-wave superfluids. As in the ABM and BW phases we find resonances in the polar and planar phases in the neutral case. In the charged case the resonances remain unchanged in the long wave-length limit, except the zero-sounds which are turned into plasmons.
