Funded Activity Summary

Creation, detection, and decoherence of a "Schrödinger Cat". Ultra-cold physics is a new frontier of science, especially Bose-Einstein condensates, as mesoscopic quantum objects, are expected to have a revolutionary impact on future science and technology. This project aims to test the famous quantum mechanical prediction the "Schrödinger Cat" (neither dead nor alive) using ultra-cold physics.
