Observation of collectivity enhanced magnetoassociation of 6 Li in the quantum degenerate regime (2022)
Journal Article
Naniyil, V., Zhou, Y., Simmonds, G., Cooper, N., Li, W., & Hackermüller, L. (2022). Observation of collectivity enhanced magnetoassociation of 6 Li in the quantum degenerate regime. New Journal of Physics, 24, Article 113005. https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/ac9b81

The association process of Feshbach molecules is well described by a Landau-Zener transition above the Fermi temperature, such that two-body physics dominates the dynamics. However, using 6 Li atoms and the associated Feshbach resonance at B r = 834.... Read More about Observation of collectivity enhanced magnetoassociation of 6 Li in the quantum degenerate regime.
