dc.description.abstract | The occupation number of a magnetically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate is limited for atoms with attractive interactions. It has been predicted that, as this limit is approached, the condensate will collapse by a collective process. The measured spread in condensate number for samples of Li7 atoms undergoing thermal equilibration is consistent with the occurrence of such collapses. | en_US |
