Bose-Einstein condensation has in the last two decades been observed in cold atomic gases and in solid-state physics quasiparticles, exciton-polaritons and magnons, respectively. The perhaps most widely known example of a bosonic gas,…
Many bosons can occupy a single quantum state without a limit. This state is described by quantum-mechanical Bose-Einstein statistics, which allows the formation of a Bose-Einstein condensate at low temperatures and high particle densities.…

Ionization-excitation of an atom induced by the absorption of a single photon in the presence of a neighbouring atom is studied. The latter is, first, resonantly photoexcited and, afterwards, transfers the excitation energy radiationlessly…
