    Abstract

    We report an effective method for enhancing the photoassociation of ultracold atoms using a non-resonant magnetic field, which enables the manipulation of the coupling between the wavefunctions of the colliding atomic pairs and the excited molecules. A series of photoassociation spectra are measured for different magnetic fields. We show that the photoassociation rate is significantly dependent on the non-resonant magnetic field. A qualitatively theoretical explanation is provided, and shows a good agreement with the experimental result.
