Description

Bosonic atom-trimer scattering is studied in the unitary limit using momentum-space equations for four-particle transition operators. The impact of the Efimov effect on the atom-trimer scattering observables is explored, and a number of universal relations is established. Positions and widths of tetramer resonances are determined. The trimer relaxation rate constant is calculated.
