• Abstract summary: We report on an experimental investigation of the scaling law for the three-body atomic loss rate $L_3$ in a two-component $6$Li Fermi gas with the scattering length $a0$. Results indicate that the three-body recombination rate in a fermionic system could be characterized by the scaling law associated with the generalized Efimov physics.

• Abstract: Ultracold atomic gases provide a controllable system to study the inelastic processes for three-body systems, where the three-body recombination rate depends on the scattering length scaling. Such scalings have been confirmed in bosonic systems with various interaction strengths, but their existence with fermionic atoms remains elusive. In this work, we report on an experimental investigation of the scaling law for the three-body atomic loss rate $L_3$ in a two-component $^6$Li Fermi gas with the scattering length $a<0$. The scaling law is validated within a certain range of $a$ near the narrow $s$-wave Feshbach resonance, where $L_3\propto T|a|^{2.60(5)}$, and $T$ is the gas temperature. The scaling law is observed to have an upper and a lower bound in terms of the scattering length. For the upper bound, when $a\rightarrow \infty$, the power-law scaling is suppressed by the unitary behavior of the resonance caused by the strong three-body collisions. For the lower bound, $a\rightarrow 0$, the finite range effect modifies the scaling law by the effective scattering length $L_e$. These results indicate that the three-body recombination rate in a fermionic system could be characterized by the scaling law associated with the generalized Efimov physics.

  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 report the creation and the study of the stability of a repulsive quasi-homogeneous spin-$1/2$ Fermi gas with contact interactions. For the range of scattering lengths $a$ explored, the dominant mechanism of decay is a universal three-body recombination towards a Feshbach bound state. The measurement of $K_3$ provides an upper bound for the interaction strength achievable in equilibrium for a uniform repulsive Fermi gas.

  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.

  We report direct evidence for bosonization in a SU($N$) fermionic ytterbium gas with tunable $N$ in three dimensions (3D) We find that the contact per spin approaches a constant with a 1/$N$ scaling in the low fugacity regime consistent with our theoretical prediction.
