Recent theoretical developments have fostered a convergence between gravitational physics and condensed matter through the investigation of black holes as self-sustained Bose–Einstein condensates.

Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) represent a unique state of matter in which dilute gases of bosons cooled to temperatures near absolute zero coalesce into a single macroscopic quantum state. Their ...

They enable high-precision measurements, define the unit of voltage, and form the heart of many quantum computers – the ...

A bizarre state of matter just got weirder — and more useful. Physicists have succeeded in cooling down molecules so much that hundreds of them lock in step, making a single gigantic quantum state.
