A quantum state of matter has been made for the first-time using “dipolar” molecules – molecules that have a positively charged end and a negatively charged end. It could help enhance our understanding of the quantum properties of exotic materials newscientist.com/article/240996…

New Scientist covers our recent preprint on first Bose-Einstein condensate of dipolar molecules — thank you, Kaden Hazzard, for commenting! @Ironmely Niccolò Bigagli Tijs Karman Columbia Quantum Initiative Columbia Physics Department Columbia University

Don't miss our early-bird registration deadline of the 1st April if you want to attend ICAP for the best possible price! You'll still have until the 1st June to submit your abstract. See icap28.com/#about-icap-20… for our pricing structure and registration links!

Visiting Xinyu Luo today and tomorrow. Found the antennas that make microwave shielding work :)

Our new review article published in Nature Physics on "Ultracold chemistry as a testbed for few-body physics" together with phenomenal Tijs Karman Tijs Karman and Jesús Pérez-Ríos Jesús Pérez Ríos nature.com/articles/s4156… See more great reviews on ultracold molecules in the same issue

The Review by Tijs Karman, Michał Tomza and Jesús Pérez Ríos provides a unifying view by discussing the unique possibilities offered by ultracold molecules and hybrid ion-atom systems for the study of quantum chemistry in unexplored regimes. (4/n) nature.com/articles/s4156…

There’s a hot new BEC in town that has nothing to do with bacon, egg, & cheese: it's a molecular Bose-Einstein Condensate, an ultracold quantum creation decades in the making. Find it in the coldest place in NYC, the lab of Sebastian Will Columbia Physics Department news.columbia.edu/news/coldest-l…

Just out in Nature - our paper on the first Bose-Einstein condensate of dipolar molecules, a gas of molecules cooled into the quantum regime ⚛️-⚛️❄️. A big thank you to the entire NaCs team – past and present members – for the amazing work! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Check out my interview for the Nature Podcast on our recent paper on Bose-Einstein condensation of dipolar molecules - from 0:46 - 9:57 mins. Thank you Elizabeth Gibney and Benjamin Thompson for being great hosts!! nature.com/articles/d4158…

Enjoyed the first day of chairlifts at #ACSFall2024 Mutual Chair-lift of Chemistry & Quantum Computing Symposium theochem.ru.nl/chairlift/

Second day of the Mutual Chairlift of Quantum and Chemistry at #ACSFall2024 was just as cool

Even more secret Chemists!

Proud chemists at #ACSFall2024
