• Quantum Liquid “Cooling” Without “Evaporation” Described at ITMO

  Researchers from ITMO University have suggested a precise model that describes the “cooling” or the loss of “extra” energy in polariton condensate, a special kind of quantum liquid. For this purpose, the physicists rewrote the main equation, adding a new summand that describes energy redistribution within a system without particle loss. The new approach will make it possible to model the behavior of quantum environments more precisely, which may be beneficial in the development of elements for optical computing systems, energy-efficient photonic chips, and other next-gen quantum optical devices. The study was described in a paper published in Physical Review B.
