| Title | Triplet s-wave resonance in 6Li collisions and scattering lengths of 6Li and 7Li |
| Date | 1997-05 |
| Description | The triplet s-wave scattering length of 6Li is determined using two-photon photoassociative spectroscopy of the diatomic α 3Σu+ state of 6Li2. The measured binding energy of the highest-lying bound state, combined with knowledge of the potential, determines the s-wave scattering length to be -2160±250)α0, where α0 is the Bohr radius. This extraordinarily large scattering length signifies a near-threshold resonance. A complete table of singlet and triplet scattering lengths for collisions involving 6Li and 7Li determined from this and our previous spectroscopic investigations is given. |
