Room-temperature superconductivity is "definitely at the back of people's minds," notes David Snoke, a University of Pittsburgh physicist who also does research on novel Bose-Einstein condensates (http:// blogs. Like Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs), fermion gases consist of a large number of quantum constituents at the lowest achievable temperatures. The technique paved the way for the 1995 discovery of the Bose-Einstein condensate, a bizarre type of matter that had eluded experimenters ever since its existence was theorized by Albert Einstein more than 70 years ago. |
