Physicists reveal an intriguing manifestation of topology, which appears in the depletion rate of topological states of matter in response to an external drive. In…
NASA scientists plan to create the coolest spot in the universe at the International Space Station by freezing gas atoms to a mere billionth of…
Physicists from MIT have created a superfluid gas, the so-called Bose-Einstein condensate, for the first time in an extremely high magnetic field. The magnetic field…
Researchers will use NASA’s Cold Atom Laboratory to study ultra-cold quantum gases, exploring how atoms interact in microgravity when they have almost no motion due…
Using a vacuum system that isolates ultracold atoms from room temperature and pressure, scientists reveal new clues about how ultracold atoms interact. Assembling the puzzles…
Using ultracold cesium atoms in a vacuum chamber, scientists have successfully simulated the evolution of the early universe. Physicists have reproduced a pattern resembling the…
