Abstract The phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation of dilute gases in traps is
reviewed from a theoretical perspective. Mean-field theory provides a framework to …

The physics of quantum degenerate atomic Fermi gases in uniform as well as in
harmonically trapped configurations is reviewed from a theoretical perspective. Emphasis is …

Since an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate, predicted by Einstein in 1925, was first
produced in the laboratory in 1995, the study of ultracold Bose and Fermi gases has become …

Quantum atomic and molecular gases are flexible systems for studies of fundamental many-
body physics. They have traditionally been produced in harmonic electromagnetic traps and …

The realization of superfluidity in a dilute gas of fermionic atoms, analogous to
superconductivity in metals, represents a long-standing goal of ultracold gas research. In …

We report on the generation of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a gas of chromium atoms,
which have an exceptionally large magnetic dipole moment and therefore underlie …

In most cosmological models, rapid expansion of space marks the first moments of the
Universe and leads to the amplification of quantum fluctuations. The description of …

The realization of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEe) in dilute atomic gases [1-5] achieved
several long-standing goals. First, neutral atoms were cooled into the lowest energy state …

We demonstrate a reversible conversion of a Li 2 6 molecular Bose-Einstein condensate to
a degenerate Fermi gas of atoms by adiabatically crossing a Feshbach resonance. By …

In 1935, Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen (EPR) conceived a gedanken experiment which
became a cornerstone of quantum technology and still challenges our understanding of …
