- Abstract: We study quantum degenerate Fermi gases of ${^6}$Li atoms at high densities
($10^{15}$ cm$^{-3}$) and observe elastic and inelastic $p$-wave collisions far
away from any Feshbach resonance. $P$-wave evaporation reaches temperatures of
$T/T_F=0.42$ partially limited by the slow transfer of energy from high to low
velocities through $p$-wave collisions. Via cross-dimensional thermalization,
the $p$-wave background scattering volume is determined to be $\lvert V_p
\rvert =(39^{+1.3}_{-1.6}a_0)^3$. $P$-wave dipolar relaxation creates a
metastable mixture of the lowest and highest hyperfine states.

- Elastic collision rates of spin-polarized fermions in two dimensions [1.6473563575769847]
We study the $p$-wave elastic collision rates in a two-dimensional spin-polarized ultracold Fermi gas in the presence of a $p$-wave Feshbach resonance.
In the zero-range limit where the effective range is negligible, the elastic collision rate coefficient is proportional to temperature $T2$ and scattering area $A_p2$.
Our results suggest that $p$-wave evaporation may be performed with improved efficiency and may provide insight into the dynamics of the system in experiments.

We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of a pseudoscalar axion-like particle (ALP) weakly coupled to degrees of freedom in thermal equilibrium.
Time evolution is determined by the in-in effective action which we obtain to leading order in the (ALP) coupling.
We discuss possible cosmological consequences on structure formation, the effective number of relativistic species and birefringence of the cosmic microwave background.

We investigate the production of all-optical $39$K Bose-Einstein condensates with different scattering lengths using a Feshbach resonance near $33$ G.
We are able to produce fully condensed ensembles with $5.8times104$ atoms within $850$ ms evaporation time at a scattering length of $232.
Based on our findings we describe routes towards high-flux sources of ultra-cold potassium for inertial sensing.

We show that due to the structure of alkaline-earth (like) atoms, the heating effects induced by the laser beams of our methods are very weak.
As a result, the Feshbach resonances, with which one can efficiently control the SEI by changing the laser intensity, may be induced by the laser beams with low-enough heating rate.
