Shifts and widths of Feshbach resonances in atomic waveguides

Abstract

We develop and analyze a theoretical model which yields the shifts and widths of Feshbach resonances in an atomic waveguide. It is based on a multichannel approach for confinement-induced resonances (CIRs) and atomic transitions in the waveguides in the multimode regime. In this scheme we replace the single-channel scalar interatomic interaction by the four-channel tensorial potential modeling resonances of broad, narrow, and overlapping character according to the two-channel parametrization of Lange et al. [Phys. Rev. A 79, 013622 (2009)]. As an input the experimentally known parameters of Feshbach resonances in the absence of the waveguide are used. We calculate the shifts and widths of $s$-, $d$-, and $g$-wave magnetic Feshbach resonances of Cs atoms emerging in harmonic waveguides as CIRs and resonant enhancement of the transmission at zeros of the free space scattering length. We have found the linear dependence of the width of the resonance on the longitudinal atomic momentum and quadratic dependence on the waveguide width. Our model opens possibilities for quantitative studies of the scattering processes in ultracold atomic gases in waveguides beyond the framework of $s$-wave resonant scattering.

Shifts and widths of p -wave confinement induced resonances in atomic waveguides

Shahpoor Saeidian, Vladimir S. Melezhik, Peter Schmelcher

Abstract We develop and analyze a theoretical model to study p -wave Feshbach resonances of identical fermions in atomic waveguides by extending the two-channel model of Lange et al (2009 Phys. Rev. A 79 013622 ) and Saeidian et al (2012 Phys. Rev. A 86 062713 ). The experimentally known parameters of Feshbach resonances in free space are used as input of the model. We calculate the shifts and widths of p -wave magnetic Feshbach resonance of 40 K atoms emerging in harmonic waveguides as p -wave confinement induced resonance (CIR). Particularly, we show a possibility to control the width and shift of the p -wave CIR by the trap frequency and the applied magnetic field which could be used in corresponding experiments. Our analysis also demonstrates the importance of the inclusion of the effective range in the computational schemes for the description of the p -wave CIRs contrary to the case of s -wave CIRs where the influence of this term is negligible.

Multichannel atomic scattering and confinement-induced resonances in waveguides

Shahpoor Saeidian, Vladimir S. Melezhik, Peter Schmelcher

We develop a grid method for multichannel scattering of atoms in a waveguide with harmonic confinement. This approach is employed to extensively analyze the transverse excitations and deexcitations as well as resonant scattering processes. Collisions of identical bosonic and fermionic as well as distinguishable atoms in harmonic traps with a single frequency $\ensuremath{\omega}$ permitting the center-of-mass (c.m.) separation are explored in depth. In the zero-energy limit and single mode regime we reproduce the well-known confinement-induced resonances (CIRs) for bosonic, fermionic, and heteronuclear collisions. In the case of the multimode regime up to four open transverse channels are considered. Previously obtained analytical results are extended significantly here. Series of Feshbach resonances in the transmission behavior are identified and analyzed. The behavior of the transmission with varying energy and scattering lengths is discussed in detail. The dual CIR leading to a complete quantum suppression of atomic scattering is revealed in multichannel scattering processes. Possible applications include, e.g., cold and ultracold atom-atom collisions in atomic waveguides and electron-impurity scattering in quantum wires.

Resonances in ultracold collisions confined by atomic traps

Vladimir S. Melezhik

We have developed a method for treating ultracold pair collisions in confined geometry of tight atomic waveguides. With this approach we have predicted and analyzed a few novel resonant and multichannel effects induced by confining traps in ultracold atomic collisions. In this report we discuss our model yielding the shifts and widths of magnetic Feshbach resonances in tight atomic waveguides. We also briefly discuss a resonant mechanism of molecule formation in atomic traps with transferring the energy release to the center-of-mass excitation while forming molecule and dipolar confinement-induced resonances in waveguides. These results could potentially be used experimentally.

Two-channel-model description of confinement-induced Feshbach molecules

Shi-Guo Peng, Hui Hu, Xia-Ji Liu +1 more

Using a two-channel model, we investigate theoretically the binding energy of confinement-induced Feshbach molecules in two- and one-dimensional ultracold atomic systems near a Feshbach resonance. We show that the two-channel prediction will evidently deviate from the simple single-channel theory as the width of Feshbach resonances decreases. For the one-dimensional system, we perform a full two-channel calculation, with the inclusion of bare interatomic interactions in the open channel. Away from the resonance, we find a sizable correction to the binding energy, if we neglect the bare interatomic interactions as in the previous work [D. B. M. Dickerscheid and H. T. C. Stoof, Phys. Rev. A 72, 053625 (2005)]. We compare our theoretical results with the existing experimental data and present predictions for narrow Feshbach resonances that could be tested in future experiments.

Width and shift of Fano-Feshbach resonances for van der Waals interactions

Pascal Naidon, Ludovic Pricoupenko

We revisit the basic properties of Fano-Feshbach resonances in two-body systems with van der Waals tail interactions, such as ultracold neutral atoms. Using a two-channel model and two different methods, we investigate the relationship between the width and shift of the resonances and their dependence on the low-energy parameters of the system. Unlike what was previously believed [C. Chin et al., Rev. Mod. Phys. 82, 1225 (2010)] for magnetic resonances, we find that the ratio between the width and the shift of a resonance does not depend only on the background scattering length, but also on a closed-channel scattering length. We obtain different limits corresponding to different cases of optical and magnetic resonances. Although the generalization of the theory to the multichannel case remains to be done, we found that our two-channel predictions are verified for a specific resonance of lithium-6.
