Satyendra Nath Bose, a 30-year-old lecturer in colonial India, wrote a five-page paper in 1924 that solved a problem Albert ...

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 ...

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 ...
