Heteronuclear Feshbach Resonances in a Bose-Fermi Mixture of $^{40}$K and $^{87}$Rb

POSTER

Abstract

Feshbach resonances have proven to be a valuable tool in the study of atomic gases. These resonances allow control over both the sign and magnitude of the interaction between two atoms. We have observed four magnetically tunable heteronuclear Feshbach resonances between fermionic $^{40}$K and bosonic $^{87}$Rb. We report on studies of interactions in the mixture of the two species near a Feshbach resonance.
