17. In general one could consider the situation in which the vertical direction does not lie in any of symmetry planes of the trap. Anyway, since most experiments are performed with cylindrically symmetric traps, we restrict our analysis to this case. The extension to the case of anisotropic traps is straightforward.

22. Although the scattering length (Formula presented) has been recently estimated to be of the order of (Formula presented) 16, in principle, it is possible to tune its value by using Feshbach resonances.
