This equipment was used by Wolfgang Ketterle in experiments to create “Bose-Einstein condensates”, which only occur at extremely low temperatures.
To the left is one of the coils first used in the experiments in 1996, which was cooled by water through the tubes.
In the middle is an electronic control panel built by the researchers. It was installed between the experimental apparatus and a computer to protect against water failure in the cooling of the coils.
To the right is an atomic beam shutter in two parts, used in the experiments in 1994–2001.
Wolfgang Ketterle donated the equipment to the Nobel Prize Museum in 2001.
