The effective spatial dimension containing an atomic cloud can be continuously modified by compressing it in one or two directions. In the present Rapid Communication we determine the dimensionality D for which the Efimov effect can exist for different values of the mass ratio A = m(B)/m(A) for a general AAB system formed by two identical bosons A and a third particle B in the two-body unitary limit. In addition, we provide a prediction for the Efimov discrete scaling factor exp(pi/s) as a function of a wide range of values of A and D, which can be tested in experiments that can be realized with currently available technology.5engArtigo10.1103/PhysRevA.97.050701WOS:000432021600001Acesso abertoWOS000432021600001.pdf
