Acoustic analogues of black holes (dumb holes) are generated when a supersonic fluid flow entrains sound waves and forms a trapped region from which sound cannot escape. The surface of no return, the acoustic horizon, is qualitatively very…
We have observed Bose-Einstein condensation of an atomic gas in the (quasi-)uniform three-dimensional potential of an optical box trap. Condensation is seen in the bimodal momentum distribution and the anisotropic time-of-flight expansion…

The demonstration of Bose-Einstein condensation in atomic gases at micro-Kelvin temperatures is a striking landmark while its evidence for semiconductor excitons still is a long-awaited milestone. This situation was not foreseen because…
