Abstract
We demonstrate the implications of Efimov physics in the recently measured recombination rate of Cesium-133 atoms. By employing previously calculated results for the energy dependence of the recombination rate of Helium-4 atoms, we obtain three independent scaling functions that are capable of describing the recombination rates over a large energy range for identical bosons with large scattering length. We benchmark these and previously obtained scaling functions by successfully comparing their predictions with full atom-dimer phase shift calculations with artificial Helium-4 potentials yielding large scattering lengths. Exploiting universality, we finally use these functions to determine the 3-body recombination rate of Cesium-133 atoms with large positive scattering length, compare our results to experimental data obtained by the Innsbruck group and find excellent agreement.
