Researchers create a new Bose-Einstein condensate

Unlike most previous Bose?Einstein condensates created experimentally, the new condensate does not need to be cooled down to temperatures near absolute zero. Because the particles are mostly light, the condensation could be induced in room temperature.

Individual impurity atoms detectable in graphene

Physicists have succeeded in using atomic force microscopy to clearly obtain images of individual impurity atoms in graphene ribbons. Thanks to the forces measured in the graphene?s two-dimensional carbon lattice, they were able to identify boron and nitrogen for the first time.
