Feshbach resonances in ultracold collisions often result from an interplay between many collision channels. Simple two-channel models can be introduced to capture the basic features, but cannot fully reproduce the situation when several…
A magnetic field dependent Feshbach resonance has been observed in the elastic scattering collision rate between atoms in the F = 2, M = -2 state of 85 Rb. Changing the magnetic field by several Gauss caused the collision rate to vary by a…

Feshbach resonances are commonly described by a single-resonance Feshbach model, and open-channel resonances are not taken into account explicitly. However, an open-channel resonance near threshold limits the range of validity of this…
