Several Years Later: the Creation of a Bose-Einstein Condensate in an Ultracold Gas

Published

Author(s)

C E. Wieman, Eric A. Cornell

Abstract

The experimental realization of Bose-Einstein condensation in a dilute gas has presented physicists with rare and novel opportunites. We anticipate that both theorists and experimenters will be taking advantage of these opportunities for some years to come.
