Bose-Einstein condensation of sodium atoms

N. J. van Druten, Dallin Durfee, Kendall B. Davis +4 more

Summary form only given. Bose-Einstein condensation (BEG) has been observed in a dilute gas of sodium atoms. A Bose-Einstein condensate consists of a macroscopic population of the ground state of the system and is a coherent state of matter. In an ideal gas, this phase transition is purely quantum statistical. The study of BEC in weakly interacting systems that can be controlled and observed with precision holds the promise of revealing new macroscopic quantum phenomena that can be understood from first principles.

New states of matter with fine-tuned interactions: quantum droplets and dipolar supersolids

Fabian Böttcher, Jan-Niklas Schmidt, Jens Hertkorn +5 more

Quantum fluctuations can stabilize Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) against the mean-field collapse. Stabilization of the condensate has been observed in quantum degenerate Bose-Bose mixtures and dipolar BECs. The fine-tuning of the interatomic interactions can lead to the emergence of two new states of matter: liquid-like self-bound quantum droplets and supersolid crystals formed from these droplets. We review the properties of these exotic states of matter and summarize the experimental progress made using dipolar quantum gases and Bose-Bose mixtures. We conclude with an outline of important open questions that could be addressed in the future.

Quantum Complexity

Helmut Satz

Abstract Microscopic systems are today believed to be governed by quantum mechanics. Such quantum systems show novel forms of complexity, leading to a new form of critical behavior, actually observed prior to any prediction by quantum physics. Particular instances are superconductivity and superfluidity. Quantum mechanics itself leads to a new state of matter in the form of Bose–Einstein condensates. Subsequent works by Bardeen, Cooper and Schrieffer have provided a phenomenological account for the observed behavior, and Bose–Einstein condensation as such has now also been observed.
