Spin-Conservation Propensity Rule for Three-Body Recombination of Ultracold Rb Atoms

We explore the physical origin and the general validity of a propensity rule for the conservation of the hyperfine spin state in three-body recombination. This rule was recently discovered for the special case of Rb87 with its nearly equal singlet and triplet scattering lengths. Here, we test the pr...
