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 Einstein–de Haas effect, which links the spin of electrons to macroscopic rotation, has now been demonstrated in a ...

The speed of light is often regarded as the ultimate cosmic speed limit, but researchers have now managed to slow it down dramatically—to just 61 kilometers per hour. This was achieved by using a Bose ...

Recent theoretical developments have fostered a convergence between gravitational physics and condensed matter through the investigation of black holes as self-sustained Bose–Einstein condensates.

Bose–Einstein condensates and ultracold atoms continue to offer profound insights into quantum many‐body systems and emergent macroscopic quantum phenomena. These systems, achieved by cooling dilute ...

We are familiar with the four states of matter such as solid, liquid, gas, and plasma, but little did we know that there's a fifth state called Bose-Einstein Condensate or BEC. Recently, a group of ...

This month marks 25 years since scientists first produced a fifth state of matter, which has extraordinary properties totally unlike solids, liquids, gases and plasmas. The achievement garnered a ...

Quantum simulators are quantum systems that can be controlled exceptionally well. They can be used to indirectly learn something about other quantum systems, which cannot be experimented on so easily.
