Transcript
00:00The Gila laser cryostat locks rubidium atoms into a deadly deep freeze.
00:05Laser beams and magnetic fields slow the atoms down,
00:09trapping them and chilling the cloud to near absolute zero.
00:13Cooling them near absolute zero slows motion dramatically,
00:17revealing strange quantum behaviors.
00:20Phase space density spikes exponentially
00:23as overlapping de Broglie wavelengths synthesize a single macroscopic entity.
00:28This ghost state behaves like a single massive superorganism
00:33built inside the Gila laser cryostat.
