• Feshbach resonances in ultracold gases (2008, methodology): “This has found numerous applications, both with atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (Cornell and Wieman, 2002; Ketterle, 2002) and with degenerate Fermi gases (Inguscio et al., 2008).”
• Mathematical Models and Numerical Methods for Bose-Einstein Condensation (2012, methodology): “For better understanding of the long history towards the Bose-Einstein condensation, we refer to the Nobel lectures [80,126].”
• Dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices (2006, methodology): “Two Nobel prizes were awarded for these achievements: for laser cooling of atoms in 1997 Chu, 1998; Cohen-Tannoudji, 1998; Phillips, 1998 and for Bose-Einstein condensation BEC in 2001 Cornell and Wieman, 2002; Ketterle, 2002 .”
• Cold hybrid ion-atom systems (2017, background): “The next stage allowing to reach temperatures as low as several nK is evaporative cooling in a magnetic or optical dipole trap (Cornell and Wieman, 2002).”
• Ultra-cold polarized Fermi gases (2010, methodology): “These experiments were made possible by the development of the techniques of laser cooling and trapping of atoms, which led to the observations of the first Bose–Einstein condensates of alkali vapors in 1995 [55, 56].”
• Atom Interferometers (2007, background): “Physics which goes deeper into the properties of degenerate quantum gases and their coherence properties is outside the purview of this review, so we refer the reader to a series of excellent reviews in the literature which summarize the status of this still very fast moving field (Cornell and Wiema”
• New frontiers for quantum gases of polar molecules (2016, background): “For alkali atoms, one can take advantage of nearly-closed optical cycling transitions that allow for efficient laser cooling to 1 − 100μK temperatures [24], which can be followed with evaporative cooling to bring the gas to quantum degeneracy [25, 26].”
