Ultracold collisions between spin-orbit-coupled dipoles: General formalism and universality

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleResearchpeer-review

Abstract

A theoretical study of the low-energy scattering properties of two aligned identical bosonic and fermionic dipoles in the presence of isotropic spin-orbit coupling is presented. A general treatment of particles with arbitrary (pseudo)spin is given in the framework of multichannel scattering. At ultracold temperatures and away from shape resonances or closed-channel dominated resonances, the cross section can be well described within the Born approximation to within corrections due to the s-wave scattering. We compare our findings with numerical calculations and find excellent agreement.
