Condensates Reveal Unique Properties

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Since researchers first produced Bose-Einstein condensates in the lab in 1995, the ultracold collections of atoms, produced with laser and magnetic cooling and trapping, have exposed quantum phenomena in matter, such as the ability to generate coherent matter waves. Teams at JILA, a joint research institute of the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the University of Colorado, both in Boulder, have reported that the condensates are even weirder than they expected. Carl E. Wieman's group discovered that tuning the interaction of rubidium atoms in a condensate from repulsive...Read full article
