The Fifth State of Matter - The Chilling Gravity Defying World of Bose Einstein Condensates
Listen now
Description
Beyond solids, liquids, and gas lies a realm of the ultra-cold, where physics gets chillingly weird. Join Subatomic Tanvi as we explore the Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) - the fifth state of matter, colder than anything you can imagine. Prepare to be amazed by superfluids that defy gravity, imagine a cup of coffee defying its container and flowing upwards! Witness frictionless flow, where stirring a BEC creates a swirl that never stops. We'll even encounter quantum tornadoes, tiny whirlwinds that exist only in this bizarre state. This episode is guaranteed to send shivers down your spine and leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about the universe.
