The Four States of Matter Plasma Solid Liquid Gas

The Fifth Phase of Matter Bose-Einstein Condensate A Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) is a state of matter of a dilute gas of bosons cooled to temperatures very near absolute zero (0 K or − °C). This state of matter was first predicted, generally, in papers by Satyendra Nath Bose and Albert Einstein in 1924–25.

The Fifth Phase of Matter Einstein extended Bose’s work and proved mathematically that cooling bosonic atoms to a very low temperature would cause them to fall (or "condense") into the lowest accessible quantum state, resulting in a new form of matter Fritz London proposed BEC as a mechanism for superfluidity in liquid helium and superconductivity The first BEC was produced by Eric Cornell and Carl Wieman at the University of Colorado at Boulder NIST–JILA lab, using a gas of rubidium atoms cooled to 170 nanokelvin (nK) (1.7×10 −7 K). For their achievements Cornell, Wieman, and Wolfgang Ketterle at MIT received the 2001 Nobel Prize in Physics The first photon BEC was observed. Dec – Hydroxyl group (OH - ) cooled to near-zero. Opens the door to possible BECs of dipolar radicals (anions). What is a Bose-Einstein Condensate?

What determines which state of matter you are in?  Particle arrangement  Energy of the particles  Distance between particles

STATES OF MATTER SOLIDS Particles of solids are tightly packed, vibrating about a fixed position. Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume.

STATES OF MATTER LIQUID  Particles of liquids are tightly packed, but are far enough apart to slide over one another.  Liquids have an indefinite shape and a definite volume.

STATES OF MATTER GAS  Particles of gases are very far apart and move freely.  Gases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume.

Compression of Gases, Liquids and Solids – Gases are compressible fluids. Their molecules are widely separated. – Liquids are relatively incompressible fluids. Their molecules are more tightly packed. – Solids are nearly incompressible and rigid. Their molecules or ions are in close contact and do not move.
