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 ...

Common sense suggests that complex phenomena such as Bose–Einstein condensation require complicated experimental set-ups to be observed. But when it comes to the field of photonics, the simplest ...

On Satyendra Nath Bose's death anniversary, we revisit how Einstein’s intervention saved his rejected paper, leading to Bose-Einstein statistics. Though the man behind the Boson or the 'God Particle' ...

Bose–Einstein condensates are a state of matter in which all the constituent particles exist in their lowest energy level. The Pauli Exclusion Principle prevents more than one electron (an ...

In this talk I will show how Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) could be used to search for clues. These systems consist of millions of atoms cooled down to nano-Kelvin temperatures. A single BEC in a ...
