We present a model space particle-hole Green's function calculation for the quadrupole excitations of cold Fermi gas near Feshbach resonance using a simple model where atoms are confined in a harmonic oscillator potential. Both the Tamm-Dancoff and random phase approximations are employed. By summing up exactly the ladder diagrams between a pair of interacting atoms to all orders, we obtain a renormalized atomic interaction which has well defined and identical limits as the scattering length tends to
±∞. The experimentally observed abrupt rise in the excitation spectrum and its associated large decay width are satisfactorily reproduced by our calculation.
We present a simple theoretical model for describing ultracold-atomic collision dynamics and Feshbach resonances (FRs) without onerous numerical computation. An effective quantum-defect phase shift ${\ensuremath{\delta}}_{\mathrm{Y}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ is derived and the reference potentials are shown acting as an assistant tool in the calculation. With the help of singlet and triplet scattering lengths
aS and
aT, as well as an adjustable parameter ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{\mathrm{sr}}$, this model can be used to reliably predict FRs. An application example of $^{6}\mathrm{Li}\ensuremath{-}^{40}\mathrm{K}$ collision shows that the results given by the simple model agree quite well with both the relevant experimental data and the coupled-channel calculations.
