Abstract
We use an atomic fountain clock to measure quantum scattering phase shifts precisely through a series of narrow, low-field Feshbach resonances at average collision energies below 1 μK. Our low spread in collision energy yields phase variations of order π=2 for target atoms in several F, mF states.We compare them to a theoretical model and establish the accuracy of the measurements and the theoretical uncertainties from the fitted potential.We find overall excellent agreement, with small statistically significant differences that remain unexplained.
