Quantum gas in free fall: Physicists produce a Bose-Einstein condensate at zero gravity

(PhysOrg.com) -- A sensitive measuring device must not be dropped - because this usually destroys the precision of the instrument. A team of researchers including scientists from the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics has done exactly this, however. And the researchers want to use this experience to make the measuring instrument even more sensitive.
