False-color
images display the velocity distribution of the cloud of rubidium
atoms at (a) just before the appearance of the Bose-Einstein condensate,
(b) just after the appearance of the condensate and (c) after further
evaporation left a sample of nearly pure condensate. The field of
view of each frame is 200 x 270 micrometers, and corresponds to the
distance the atoms have moved in about 1/20 of a second. The color
corresponds to the number of atoms at each velocity, with red being
the fewest and white being the most. Areas appearing white and light
blue indicate lower velocities. Images courtesy of Mike Matthews,
JILA research team.
