摘要
Analytic expressions for the differential cross sections of ultracold atoms and molecules that scatter primarily due to dipolar interactions are derived within the first-order Born approximation and are shown to agree with the partial wave expansion. These cross sections are applied to the problem of cross-dimensional rethermalization. Strikingly, the rate of rethermalization can vary by as much as a factor of 2, depending on the orientation of the dipoles. Thus the anisotropic dipole-dipole interaction can have a significant effect even on the behavior of a nondegenerate ultracold gas.
