Browsing: Bose-Einstein Condensates
Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs) are a state of matter formed when atoms of certain elements are cooled to temperatures very close to absolute zero (0 Kelvin, -273.15 Celsius). Under these extreme conditions, a large fraction of the atoms collapse into the lowest quantum state, causing them to behave as a single quantum entity with macroscopic quantum phenomena. This state of matter was predicted by Satyendra Nath Bose and Albert Einstein in the early 1920s. BECs are used to explore fundamental questions in quantum mechanics, as they provide a highly controllable environment for studying macroscopic quantum phenomena, quantum entanglement, and superfluidity.
