A century of Bose-Einstein condensation
Bose-Einstein Condensation is a phenomenon at the heart of many of the past century's most intriguing and fundamental manifestations, such as superfluidity and superconductivity: it was discovered theoretically some 100 years ago, and unequivocally experimentally demonstrated in the context of weakly-interacting gases 30 years ago. Since then, it has revolutionised our understanding of the collective quantum behaviour of matter. Such a phenomenon manifests itself across all physical scales, from the nuclear and atomic, all the way to the astrophysical, and has paved the way for novel technological applications.
