We show that the eigenvalues of the number operator [Formula: see text] in the pair state (k1, k2), where c's and c†'s are fermion operators, are limited to 0 or 1, while the eigenvalues of the pair-number operator with the net momentum q≡ k1+k2 fixed, [Formula: see text], are 0, 1, 2,…. Both fermionic and bosonic natures of the Cooper pairs (pairons) must be used in the superconductivity theory. The Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) of the pairons moving with a linear energy–momentum relation occurs at [Formula: see text] (3D), [Formula: see text] (2D), where n0 is the pairon density and v F the Fermi velocity. The connection between this [Formula: see text] and the BCS superconducting temperature is discussed.

The Bose Statistics were first predicted by the Indian Physicist Satyendra Nath Bose in 1924. Later in 1925, Einstein extended the work of Bose to non-interacting particles.The resulting statistics that came out of the work of Bose and Einstein is known as Bose-Einstein Statistics. It took researchers and scientists nearly 70 years to create the first Bose-Einstein Condensate in the laboratory in 1995. Ever since the discovery of BEC, research in this field has flourished very rapidly both theoretically and experimentally. Discovery of BEC has initiated some new topics such as atom optics, atom interferometry, quantum computation, Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics of BEC, precision measurement, low dimensional physics etc.This book explores some of the exciting new developments in a field, which combines Bose-Einstein Condensates and Optical cavities.Particularly, we show how the transmission spectroscopy can be utilized to measure the properties of the BEC in the optical cavity.
