We observe Bose-Elinstein condensation (BEC) in a dilute atomic gas cooled below 170 nK. 87Rb atoms are optically trapped and precooled loaded into a magnetic

We measure the ground state occupation and energy of a dilute Bose gas as a function of temperature. 87Rb atoms are collected in an optical trap, loaded into a
The experimental realization of Bose-Einstein condensation in a dilute gas has presented physicists with rare and novel opportunites. We anticipate that both
