We theoretically investigate strong-coupling properties of a Bose-Fermi mixture. In the mass-and population-balanced case, two of the authors have shown that a strong hetero-pairing interaction in this mixture brings about coupling phenomena between Fermi atomic excitations and Bose atomic and composite molecular excitations, that appear as an anomalous multiple peak structure in the single-particle spectral weight (SW). [D. Kharga, et. al., J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 86, 084301 (2017)].In this paper, extending this previous work, we show that, although these many-body phenomena are sensitive to mass and population imbalances between the Bose and Fermi components, SW still exhibits the multiple peak structure in a moderately mass-imbalanced 87 Rb-40 K and 23 Na-40 K mixtures. We also point out that the photoemission spectrum is a useful quantity to observe this spectral anomaly. Since a real trapped Bose-Fermi mixture is usually accompanied by mass and (local) population imbalance, our results would contribute to the study of a strongly interacting Bose-Fermi mixture, under realistic imbalanced conditions.
