This month marks 25 years since scientists first produced a fifth state of matter, which has extraordinary properties totally unlike solids, liquids, gases and plasmas. The achievement garnered a ...

We are familiar with the four states of matter such as solid, liquid, gas, and plasma, but little did we know that there's a fifth state called Bose-Einstein Condensate or BEC. Recently, a group of ...

A bizarre state of matter just got weirder — and more useful. Physicists have succeeded in cooling down molecules so much that hundreds of them lock in step, making a single gigantic quantum state.

The idea for a ‘neutrino laser’ is to take radioactive atoms, which naturally emit neutrinos when they decay, trap them, and cool them down to unimaginably low temperatures, even colder than outer ...

Bose–Einstein condensates and ultracold atoms continue to offer profound insights into quantum many‐body systems and emergent macroscopic quantum phenomena. These systems, achieved by cooling dilute ...

(Nanowerk News) Scientists have created a Bose-Einstein condensate out of excitons — quasiparticles that combine electrons and positively charged “holes” — in a semiconductor. Quasiparticle ...

Quantized vortices play a pivotal role in the interpretation of quantum phase transitions and strongly correlated physics involving the underlying confluence of superfluids, Bose-Einstein condensates, ...

Recent theoretical developments have fostered a convergence between gravitational physics and condensed matter through the investigation of black holes as self-sustained Bose–Einstein condensates.
