The basic laws of triangular vortex lattices' formation in Bose-Einstein condensates(BEC) are discussed.A solution of triangular lattices is attained by deducing the Gross-Pitaevskii equation,which describes the behaviors of BECs trapped in magneto-optical potential.In addition,a brief explanation to the latest related experiments as well as results is also discussed.

Photons are the first ever particles considered in the Bose-Einstein statistics and the most abundant bosons in nature. Surprisingly, photonic gases were one of the latest to demonstrate Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) [1], despite many analogies developed over the years between laser physics and BEC. Recently, semiconductor lasers have been proposed to be a promising direction in photon BECs at room temperature [2].

We create Bose-Einstein condensates of6Li2molecules in an all-optical setup using a low power (25 W) crossed dipole trap. Our system contains a number of simplifications compared to existing setups and offers a high degree of flexibility in the trapping geometry. We will present our latest results and report on progress towards making p-wave Feshbach molecules.
