Abstract
Feshbach resonances are the essential tool to control the interaction between atoms in ultracold quantum gases. They have found numerous experimental applications, opening up the way to important breakthroughs. This review broadly covers the phenomenon of Feshbach resonances in ultracold gases and their main applications. This includes the theoretical background and models for the description of Feshbach resonances, the experimental methods to find and characterize the resonances, a discussion of the main properties of resonances in various atomic species and mixed atomic species systems, and an overview of key experiments with atomic Bose-Einstein condensates, degenerate Fermi gases, and ultracold molecules.

Effects of Configuration Interaction on Intensities and Phase Shifts

TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical analysis of the shape of the 2s2p^{1}P resonance of He observed in the inelastic scattering of electrons is presented. But the analysis is restricted to the case of one discrete level with two or more continua and of a set of discrete levels with one continuum.

Observation of Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Dilute Atomic Vapor

TL;DR: A Bose-Einstein condensate was produced in a vapor of rubidium-87 atoms that was confined by magnetic fields and evaporatively cooled and exhibited a nonthermal, anisotropic velocity distribution expected of the minimum-energy quantum state of the magnetic trap in contrast to the isotropic, thermal velocity distribution observed in the broad uncondensed fraction.
