• Abstract: We discuss $s$-wave scattering in an atomic binary collision with two coupled channels, tunable by an external magnetic field, one channel open and the other closed for the incident energies considered. The analysis is performed with a stylized model of square-well potentials. This simplification allows for a pedagogically thorough discussion of the different scattering resonances that appear in coupled channels. One of the them, the potential resonances at vanishing energy, occur as a bound state of the coupled system emerges, in turned tuned at a very precise value of the external field. The other resonances, described by Feshbach theory, occur when the incident energy is near a bound state of the closed channel, as if it were decoupled from the open channel. These resonances exist for values of the external field above a particular threshold value. Besides the potential intrinsic value of this study in a quantum mechanics course, as the analysis can be performed with minor numerical calculations, it is also an aid for the understanding of current research advances in the exciting field of ultracold gases.

• Feshbach hypothesis of high-Tc superconductivity in cuprates [0.0]
  We present a Feshbach perspective on the origin of strong pairing in Fermi-Hubbard type models. Existing experimental and numerical results on hole-doped cuprates lead us to conjecture the existence of a light, long-lived, low-energy excited state of two holes. The emergent Feshbach resonance we propose could also underlie superconductivity in other doped antiferromagnetic Mott insulators.

  One of the hallmarks of interacting systems is the formation of multi-particle bound states. We develop a high fidelity parameterizable fSim gate that implements the periodic quantum circuit of the spin-1/2 XXZ model. By placing microwave photons in adjacent qubit sites, we study the propagation of these excitations and observe their bound nature for up to 5 photons.

We show that it is modulated in time, and that the presence of the oscillating mirror can enhance or inhibit the decay rate.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
