New research shows that the unique properties of atomic Bose-Einstein condensates extend to the internal spin states of the atoms from which the condensates are formed. Bose-Einstein condensates are ...

Research into the exotic quantum phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation shows no sign of slowing as researchers in the US and France make advances in different directions. Almost six years have ...

What is a Bose-Einstein Condensate? A Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is an exotic state of matter that forms when a dilute gas of bosonic particles is cooled to temperatures very close to absolute ...

The creation of the first fermionic condensate will herald a new generation of research into the properties of superfluids and superconductors Since the first gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate was ...

New experimental research shows that half-matter, half-light quasi-particles called polaritons show compelling evidence of Bose-Einstein condensation at the relatively high temperature of 19 degrees ...

Researchers have found a way to get around the initial limitations of laser cooling, to cool atoms into Bose Einstein condensates using laser light from start to finish — a much faster, ...

The goal of the work reported here is the perfection of a powerful laser based on the coherent annihilation of a Bose-Einstein condensate of positronium, the hydrogen-like atoms formed from bound ...

In an international first, scientists from the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) produced a Bose-Einstein condensate of the alkaline-earth element strontium, thus narrowly ...

The interaction of short and strong laser pulses with an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate is found to generate patterns of recoiling atoms that are different from those seen in previous ...

Scientists have achieved, in an experiment, quantum entanglement between two ultra-cold atomic ensembles, called Bose-Einstein condensates, spatially separated from each other. The journal Science has ...
