Predication, Experiment &

Mathematical models

Theoretical predication

Particles be divided into two big classes– Bosons: photons, phonons, etc

• Integer spin• Like in same state & many can occupy one obit• Sociable & gregarious

– Fermions: electrons, neutrons, protons etc• Half-integer spin & each occupies a single obit• Loners due to Pauli exclusion principle

Theoretical predication

For atoms, e.g. bosons– Get colder:

• Behave more like waves & less like particles– Very cold:

• Overlap with their neighbors

– Extremely cold: • Most atoms behavior in the same way, i.e gregarious• quantum mechanical ground state, • `super-atom’ & new matter of wave & fifth state

Theoretical predication of BEC

S.N. Bose: Z. Phys. 26 (1924)

– Study black body radiation: object very hot– Two photons be counted up as either identical or different– Bose statistics or Bose-Einstein statistics

A. Einstein: Sitz. Ber. Kgl. Preuss. Adad. Wiss. 22 (1924)

– Apply the rules to atoms in cold temperatures– Obtain Bose-Einstein distribution in a cold gas

Einstein’s prediction on BEC: At zero or `low’ temperatures, most particles behavior in the same way (at quantum mechanical ground state)! –gregarious behavior----- quantum phase transition happens at extremely low temperatures --- degenerate quantum gas -- `super atom’ –--fifth matter of state.
