Abstract The elastic scattering properties of ultracold 133Cs2 triplet state are investigated in detail. We construct a potential curve of the 133Cs2 triplet state, based on the latest ab initio molecular potential data and show how the scattering parameters are obtained by using three methods: the Numerov method, the semiclassical method and the variable phase method, where the scattering lengths of the 133Cs2 triplet state, i.e. 301.79a0, 300.67a0 and 310.81a0 are obtained respectively, with a0 being the Bohr radius. We also calculate the effective range and the number of bound states for the 133Cs2 triplet state. Our results are in agreement with the recent experimental data and the theoretical calculations. This confirms that the results of the scattering properties of the ultracold 133Cs2 triplet state, calculated by using these three methods, are reliable.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
