Stories about: Bose-Einstein

First Artificial Sonic Black Hole Created Researchers at the Israel Institute of Technology (IIT) have managed to create a sonic black hole, a device based on Einstein-Bose condensates that is able to trap sound waves, basically acting in very much the same way a cosmic black hole does when absorbing visible light from the electromagnetic spectrum. The devic... 18 June 2009 09:50 GMT Scientists Create New "Light-trap" Memory Modules This discovery could be a step forward into constructing what scientists call a quantum computer. Unlike classical computers that use bits to store and process information, the future generation of computers is supposed to use quantum mechanical phenomena, such as superposition and entanglement to process data. The i... 8 November 2007 04:15 GMT Scientists Captured the Coldest Atoms in the Universe Scientists have created a device that can map magnetic fields more accurately than ever, using an ultra-cold gas confined to a laser beam. It's based on ultra-cold Bose Einstein condensates (BECs) and can precisely measure low-frequency fields, like brain waves at an incredibly high resolution and sensitivity.D... 21 May 2007 06:59 GMT
