Abstract
Radio-frequency spectroscopy on weakly bound 6Li_2 molecules determines to high precision the molecular binding energies and the energy splitting between molecular states. By fitting the measurement to a multi-channel quantum scattering model, we determine the singlet and triplet scattering lengths as a_S=45.167(8) a_0 and a_T=-2140(18) a_0 (1 a_0 = 0.0529177 nm). The positions of the broad Feshbach resonances in the lowest three s-wave scattering channels are 83.41(15) mT, 69.04(5) mT, and 81.12(10) mT, respectively.Citation
