A magnetic field-dependent Feshbach resonance has been observed in the elastic scattering collision rate between atoms in the $F\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}2,M\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}\ensuremath{-}2$ state of ${}^{85}\mathrm{Rb}$. Changing the magnetic field by several Gauss caused the collision rate to vary by a factor of 1${0}^{4}$, and the sign of the scattering length could be reversed. …
