In 1995, researchers made the ground-breaking discovery that there is a fifth state of matter: Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs). Essentially, BECs are formed when particles are cooled to near absolute zero, causing them to coalesce into a single quantum object that acts as a wave in a relatively large packet.
In condensed matter physics, a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) is a state of matter that is typically formed when a gas of bosons at very low densities is cooled to temperatures very close to absolute zero, i.e., 0 K (−273.15 °C; −459.67 °F).
Sometimes referred to as the 'fifth state of matter', a Bose-Einstein Condensate is a state of matter created when particles, called bosons, are cooled to near absolute zero (-273.15 degrees Celsius, or -460 degrees Fahrenheit).
29 Μαρ 2024 · The Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is one of the five primary states of matter. In it, atoms reach such low energies that the rules of quantum mechanics dictate that they stop acting as...
9 Ιουν 2020 · What is the fifth state of matter? Who is Bose, and why is Einstein involved? And what weird properties are involved? Two physicists tackle the subject...
Until 1995, when scientists created the first Bose-Einstein condensate, physicists viewed this 5th state of matter as purely theoretical, with many claiming that achieving absolute zero conditions necessary to create this condensate was impossible.
5 Ιουν 2024 · In the mid-1920s, two absolute giants in the world of physics, Satyendra Nath Bose and Albert Einstein, theorized the existence of a strange quantum state of matter that’d eventually be named...
