It is well-known that cold atoms near s-wave Feshbach resonances have universal properties that are insensitive to the short-range details of the interaction. What is less known is that atoms near higher partial wave Feshbach resonances…

We consider a two-component Fermi gas interacting via a Feshbach molecular state. It is shown that an important energy scale is $E_g=g^4m^3/(64\pi^2)$ where $g$ is the Feshbach coupling constant and $m$ the mass of the particles. Only when…
