Transport of electrons in a bulk metal is usually well captured by their particle-like aspects, while their wave-like nature is commonly harder to observe. Microstructures can be are fully designed to reveal the quantum phase, for example…

We report on the preparation of a pure ultracold sample of bosonic DyK Feshbach molecules, which are composed of the fermionic isotopes 161Dy and 40K. Employing a magnetic sweep across a resonance located near 7.3 G, we produce up to 5000…
We report the observation of the scissors mode of a Bose-Einstein condensed gas of 87^Rb atoms in a magnetic trap, which gives direct evidence of superfluidity in this system. The scissors mode of oscillation is excited by a sudden rotation…
