Feshbach resonances in ultracold gases

C Chin, R Grimm, P Julienne, E Tiesinga - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2010 - APS
Feshbach resonances are the essential tool to control the interaction between atoms in
ultracold quantum gases. They have found numerous experimental applications, opening up …

Universality in few-body systems with large scattering length

E Braaten, HW Hammer - Physics Reports, 2006 - Elsevier
Particles with short-range interactions and a large scattering length have universal low-
energy properties that do not depend on the details of their structure or their interactions at …

Production of cold molecules via magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances

T Köhler, K Góral, PS Julienne - Reviews of modern physics, 2006 - APS
Magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances were employed to associate cold diatomic
molecules in a series of experiments involving both atomic Bose and two-spin-component …

Observation of a strongly interacting degenerate Fermi gas of atoms

KM O'hara, SL Hemmer, ME Gehm, SR Granade… - Science, 2002 - science.org
We report on the observation of a highly degenerate, strongly interacting Fermi gas of atoms.
Fermionic lithium-6 atoms in an optical trap are evaporatively cooled to degeneracy using a …

BCS–BEC crossover: From high temperature superconductors to ultracold superfluids

Q Chen, J Stajic, S Tan, K Levin - Physics Reports, 2005 - Elsevier
We review the BCS to Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) crossover scenario which is
based on the well known crossover generalization of the BCS ground state wavefunction …

BCS-BEC crossover in a gas of Fermi atoms with a Feshbach resonance

Y Ohashi, A Griffin - Physical review letters, 2002 - APS
We discuss the BCS-BEC crossover in a degenerate Fermi gas of two hyperfine states
interacting close to a Feshbach resonance. We show that, by including fluctuation …

Collective Rabi oscillations and solitons in a time-dependent BCS pairing problem

RA Barankov, LS Levitov, BZ Spivak - Physical review letters, 2004 - APS
Motivated by recent efforts to achieve cold fermions pairing, we study the nonadiabatic
regime of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer state formation. After the interaction is turned on, at …

Measurement of positive and negative scattering lengths in a Fermi gas of atoms

CA Regal, DS Jin - Physical review letters, 2003 - APS
We report on progress toward realizing a predicted superfluid phase in a Fermi gas of
atoms. We present measurements of both large positive and large negative scattering …

Low-energy universality and the new charmonium resonance at 3870 MeV

E Braaten, M Kusunoki - Physical Review D, 2004 - APS
The recently discovered narrow charmonium resonance near 3870 MeV is interpreted as a
hadronic molecule whose constituents are the charm mesons D 0 and D* 0 or D 0 and D* 0 …
