Independent control of scattering lengths in multicomponent quantum gases.

چکیده
We develop a method of simultaneous and independent control of different scattering lengths in ultracold atomic gases, such as ;{40}K or a ;{40}K-;{6}Li mixture. Our method can be used to engineer multicomponent quantum phases and Efimov trimer states.

Suppression of quantum scattering in strongly confined systems.
We demonstrate that scattering of particles strongly interacting in three dimensions (3D) can be suppressed at low energies in a quasi-one-dimensional (1D) confinement. The underlying mechanism is the interference of the s- and p-wave scattering contributions with large s- and p-wave 3D scattering lengths being a necessary prerequisite. This low-dimensional quantum scattering effect might be us...
متن کاملUltracold scattering properties of the short-lived Rb isotopes
We compute the scattering properties of rubidium atoms at ultracold temperatures, placing special emphasis on the radioactive isotopes Rb,Rb,Rb, and Rb. In combination with the more ‘‘conventional’’ isotope Rb, these species yield a wide variety of scattering behavior, with consequences for creating mixtures of Fermi-Fermi, Fermi-Bose, and Bose-Bose gases. In each of these mixtures we find at l...
متن کاملCold quantum gases: coherent quantum phenomena from Bose-Einstein condensation to BCS pairing of fermions
Studies of trapped quantum gases of bosons and of fermions have opened up a new range of manybody problems, having a strong overlap with nuclear and neutron star physics. Topics discussed here include: the Bose yrast problem – how many-particle Bose systems carry extreme amounts of angular momentum; the infrared divergent structure of the transition to Bose condensation in a weakly interacting ...
متن کاملExploring Universality of Few-body Physics Based on Ultracold Atoms near Feshbach Resonances
A universal characterization of interactions in fewand many-body quantum systems is often possible without detailed description of the interaction potential, and has become a defacto assumption for cold atom research. Universality in this context is defined as the validity to fully characterize the system in terms of two-body scattering length. We discuss universality in the following three con...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics of One-Dimensional Trapped Tonks Gases
Several experimental groups are currently working towards realizing quasione-dimensional (1D) atom de Broglie waveguides and loading them with ultracold atoms. The dynamics becomes truly 1D in a regime (Tonks gas) of low temperatures and densities, and large positive scattering lengths for which the transverse mode becomes frozen, in which case the many-body Schrödinger dynamics becomes exactly...
