Production of p-wave Feshbach molecules from an ultra-cold Fermi gas

This thesis studies the dynamics of Feshbach molecule production from a gas of ultracold spin polarised Fermi atoms. A magnetic field is used to vary the strength of the interaction between the atoms exploring the limits of weakly paired atoms and tightly bound diatomic molecules. A mean field appro...
