{"product_id":"9783319847627","title":"Heteronuclear Efimov Scenario in Ultracold Quantum Gases","description":"This thesis represents a decisive breakthrough in our understanding of the physics of universal quantum-mechanical three-body systems.The Efimov scenario is a prime example of how fundamental few-body physics features universally across seemingly disparate fields of modern quantum physics. Initially postulated for nuclear physics more than 40 years ago, the Efimov effect has now become a new research paradigm not only in ultracold atomic gases but also in molecular, biological and condensed matter systems. Despite a lot of effort since its first observations, the scaling behavior, which is a hallmark property and often referred to as the “holy grail” of Efimov physics, remained hidden until recently. In this work, the author demonstrates this behavior for the first time for a heteronuclear mixture of ultracold Li and Cs atoms, and pioneers the experimental understanding of microscopic, non-universal properties in such systems. Based on the application of Born-Oppenheimer approximation, well known from molecular physics textbooks, an exceptionally clear and intuitive picture of heteronuclear Efimov physics is revealed.","brand":"Juris Ulmanis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47631731163454,"sku":"9783319847627","price":1999.77,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9783319847627.jpg?v=1707708916","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9783319847627","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
