  • now i want toast

  • 'Soliton' is the real reason for TSOUNAMI

  • There's no reason the BEC could make time travel possible.

  • greeeeeat.

  • well, to create one, you have to hold it in a laser trap and massively cool it down. as soon as you stop that, it gets back to normal particles. so it can by definition not decay. (then it would not be a BEC)

    i can not even imagine, how you would actually *store* energy in it. (cold = low energy)

  • Actually, the BEC (with the same property you mention) would be more practical as a new data storage medium -- possibly the replacement of the magnetic hard disk. Not only does it "freeze" the speed of light it also freezes the photon configuration before they hit atoms in the BEC when light passes through the BEC; when photons exit the BEC, it is in the initial state.

  • Heck I'm in XD
