Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around locating the original paper on Bose-Einstein condensate, specifically the works by Albert Einstein and Satyendranath Bose. Participants explore different papers related to the topic, including the original announcement and subsequent works.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests the original paper on Bose-Einstein condensate, indicating difficulty in finding it online.
  • Another participant seeks clarification on whether the request pertains to the original paper by Einstein and Bose or the later paper by Eric Cornell describing its creation.
  • Participants mention the original paper by Einstein and Bose, providing links to resources where it can be found.
  • There is a discussion about a potential translation error in the English version of the original paper, specifically regarding the name of Satyendranath Bose.
  • Additional links to related papers and resources are shared, including one that generalizes to a gas of massive particles.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the existence of the original paper and its significance, but there is no consensus on the specifics of the translation error or the best resources to access the papers.

Contextual Notes

There are references to translation issues and the quality of available resources, but no resolution on the implications of these errors or the completeness of the links provided.

Anyone has the original paper on the Bose-Einstein condensate? Searched on Google without any success.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Are you referring to the original paper Eric Cornell which described its creation, or the paper that first described it?

The paper written by Einstein and Satyendranath Bose announcing their discovery.

That's a good observation. There is only one answer to that question. In the English translation (first link), in the very first paragraph, it's written Mr. D. Bose, whereas it should have been Mr. S. Bose. That's the only problem. Translation error? Let me ask for clarification from the person who posted the answer.

Hmm, perhaps it's a translation error.

Anyways, in the second link, you could take a look at the "Acknowledgements" section - there are 2 more links you could follow to keep digging around

The first URL is obsolete, while the second is already there in the answer.
