Abstract

The 2001 Nobel Prize in Physics and It's winners-- Eric A. Cornell(1961-), Carl E. Wieman(1951-) and Wolfgang Ketterle(1957-) are concisely introduced; the physical realization of Bose-Einstein condensation and it's application are reviewed.

BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATE, A NEW STATE OF MATTER ——AN INTRODUCTION TO THE 2001 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS

Chen Xu

The Nobel Prize in Physics 2001 was awarded to Eric. A.Cornell, Wolfgang Ketterle, and Carl.E. Wieman for “the achievement of Bose-Einstein condensation in dilute gases of alkali atoms, and for early fundamental studies of the properties of the condensate”. We give a brief introduction to the reaearch background, the contribution of the laureates and the significance of Bose-Einstein condensation.

WHEN the 2001 Nobel Prize for Physics was awarded to Eric Cornell and Carl Wieman from JILA in Boulder, Colorado, and to Wolfgang Ketterle from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, they were recognized for creating and studying Bose–Einstein condensates – dilute gases of atoms that are all in the same quantum state. Their remarkable achievement enabled "quantum gases" to be studied experimentally for the first time, and jump-started new sub-fields of research, including gaseous superfluidity, atom lasers and matter–wave optics.

The Physical Experiment and Their Mathematical Modeling

Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC), first predicted by Einstein in 1925, has been realized experimentally in 1995 in alkali gases. The award of the 2001 Nobel Prize in Physics to E. Cornell, C. Wieman, and W. Ketterle acknowledged the importance of the achievement. In this new state of matter, which is very dilute and at very low temperature, a macroscopic fraction of the atoms occupy the same quantum level, and behave as a coherent matter wave similar to the coherent light wave produced by a laser. In the dilute limit, the condensate is well described by a mean-field theory and a macroscopic wave function. The properties of these gaseous quantum fluids have been the focus of international interest in physics, both experimentally and theoretically, and many applications are envisioned. An important issue is the relationship between BEC and superfluidity, in particular through the existence of vortices. The focus of this book is the mathematical properties of vortices, observed in very recent experiments on rotating condensates These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
