Resonances are located by detecting magnetic-field-dependent atom loss due to three-body recombination. We resolve closely-located resonances that originate from a weak separation-dependent hyperfine coupling between the electronic spin of 6Li and the nuclear spin of 173Yb, and confirm their magnetic field spacing by ab initio electronic-structure calculations. Through quantitative comparisons of theoretical atom-loss profiles and experimental data at various temperatures between 1 μK and 20 μK, we show that three-body recombination in fermionic mixtures has a p-wave Wigner threshold behavior leading to characteristic asymmetric loss profiles. Such resonances can be applied towards the formation of ultracold doublet ground-state molecules and quantum simulation of superfluid p-wave pairing.</p>1 aGreen, Alaina1 aLi, Hui1 aToh, Jun, Hui See1 aTang, Xinxin1 aMcCormick, Katherine1 aLi, Ming1 aTiesinga, Eite1 aKotochigova, Svetlana1 aGupta, Subhadeep  uhttps://arxiv.org/abs/1912.04874
