Abstract

We present an exact diagrammatic approach for the problem of dimer-dimer scattering in 3D for dimers being a resonant bound state of two fermions in a spin singlet state, with corresponding scattering length a. We recover exactly the previously known result a B = 0.60a, where a B is the dimer-dimer scattering length. A detailed discussion of how one can “sum all the diagrams” in this case is presented. Applications to the study of 4-particle bound states of various complexes in 2D are briefly presented.
