In a Columbia University laboratory in New York, physicist Sebastian Will and his team have reached one of ultracold physics’ long-running goals: turning molecules into a Bose-Einstein condensate.
The study of quantum gases and Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) continues to redefine our understanding of matter at ultracold temperatures. When cooled to nanokelvin regimes, quantum gases exhibit ...
India, Nov. 20 -- A hundred years ago, a young physics teacher in Calcutta quietly rewrote the way nature counts. On November 20, the idea he discovered-now known as Bose-Einstein statistics-turns 101 ...
Physicists have created the first Bose-Einstein condensate — the mysterious ”‘fifth state” of matter — made from quasiparticles, entities that do not count as elementary particles but that can still ...
Scientists have created a Bose-Einstein condensate out of excitons -- quasiparticles that combine electrons and positively charged 'holes' -- in a semiconductor. Quasiparticle Bose-Einstein ...
