Recombination of three ultracold fermionic atoms

Abstract

Three-body recombination of identical, spin-polarized fermionic atoms in the ultracold limit is investigated. The mechanisms for recombination are described in terms of the ``scattering volume'' Vp in the framework of the adiabatic hyperspherical representation. We have calculated numerically the recombination rate K3 as a function of Vp and have found that K3 scales as |Vp|8/3 for small |Vp|. A comparison with experimental data is also presented.
