SUMMARY

The current state of atomic cooling has advanced significantly, particularly in the realm of Bose-Einstein Condensates (BEC). Recent discussions indicate that while foundational knowledge dates back to the 1990s, there is a lack of comprehensive review articles that cover the latest advancements in ultra-cold environments for atoms. Researchers are seeking updated literature that reflects current methodologies and findings in the field of atomic cooling. The Wikipedia article on Bose-Einstein condensates serves as a starting point, but it primarily references older studies.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Bose-Einstein Condensates (BEC)
  • Familiarity with atomic cooling techniques
  • Knowledge of cryogenics and ultra-cold physics
  • Ability to analyze scientific literature and review articles
NEXT STEPS
  • Research recent advancements in Bose-Einstein Condensate creation techniques
  • Explore the latest publications in ultra-cold atomic physics
  • Investigate experimental setups for achieving ultra-cold temperatures
  • Review current methodologies in cryogenic technology
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, researchers in atomic and condensed matter physics, and anyone interested in the latest developments in ultra-cold atomic environments.

Hello PF. I thought this would be a good place to ask around for information pertaining to "where we are at" in controlled creation of ultra-cold environments for atoms; for example, how cold an environment can we actually make today, etc.? I am especially interested in the BEC phenomena. When I search for information I tend to find articles and the likes dating from the 90's. I'd like to see some newer results. Anyone know of any recent review article perhaps? Or maybe some personal input to this matter?

Guidance much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Some, not all. But most date back a bit, and the more recent ones are quite narrow in their content. Didn't see any recent review article or the likes.
