A new study, published in Physical Review Letters, reports that scientists have successfully imaged the formation of ...
The team's experimental setup: Atoms are cooled and slowed inside a vacuum chamber, until they can be trapped in a lattice inside a cavity (black triangular cavity spacer in the bottom half of the ...
Laser-cooled atomic gases, gases of atoms chilled to temperatures around absolute zero using laser technologies, have proved to be versatile physical platforms to study and control quantum phenomena.
