We measure the critical scattering length for the appearance of the first three-body bound state, or Efimov three-body parameter, at seven different Feshbach resonances in ultracold 39K atoms. We study both intermediate and narrow…

While Efimov physics in ultracold atoms is usually modeled with an isolated Feshbach resonance many real world resonances appear in close vicinity to each other and are therefore overlapping. Here we derive a realistic model based on the…

Within the model of self-gravitating Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) dark matter (DM) it is argued that the axion-like self-interaction of ultralight bosons provides the existence of rarefied and dense phases, which are predicted earlier on…
