Bell correlations in a Bose-Einstein condensate

Image

The strongest form of correlations between particles are those that violate a Bell inequality. We have detected such Bell correlations between 480 atoms in a Bose-Einstein condensate, using a witness inequality that we derived in collaboration with the theory groups of N. Sangouard and V. Scarani. The results were reported in Science 352, 441-444 (2016).
