The Race for Absolute Zero
Documentary charting rival attempts to reach absolute zero, the ultimate
limit of cold, by scientists in London and Leiden. A second race unfolded
100 years later towards the end of the 20th century, as scientists
attempted to produce a Bose Einstein Condensate, a new state of matter
predicted by Einstein. With the winner of each scientific race going on to
win the Nobel Prize for their work, ultra-cold research has proved to be
one of the most competitive fields of modern science.
And most remarkably useful.
