Trap Holds Condensates of Two Different Spin States at Once

Barbara Goss Levi

Everyone likes a bargain, and what could be better than two for the price of one? That's what researchers in Boulder, Colorado, must have figured when they snared not just one but two spin states of the rubidium atom in an ultracold trap and simultaneously formed overlapping Bose–Einstein condensates from them. The feat—accomplished by Eric Cornell, Carl Wieman and their colleagues at JILA, the University of Colorado and the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder—gives a valuable tool to those interested in atomic collisions and their dependence on spin states, as well as to those interested in further exploration of interactions between and within condensates. As William Phillips of NIST in Gaithersburg, Maryland, points out, such a double condensate, of two different internal states of the same atom, is unlike anything seen in superfluid He4, a condensed-matter Bose–Einstein condensate.

An Intimate Gathering of Bosons

Keith R. Burnett

All too frequently we hear the term {open_quotes}Holy Grail{close_quotes} breathlessly invoked to describe one goal or another in science. However, objections can be held back in using this term for the recent experimental achievements at JILA of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Colorado in Boulder, Colorado. Atomic physicists at JILA have been able, using the techniques of laser and evaporative cooling, to put thousands of atoms into the same quantum state. In short, they have observed the phenomenon called Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in a gas of atoms for the first time. The term Holy Grail seems quite appropriate given the singular importance of this discovery. This article describes the research program, how it was developed and the future possibilities. 8 refs.
