Abstract

The recent report of the observation of Bose-Einstein condensation in atomic Hydrogen, characterized by an "anomalous" density spectrum, is shown to be in agreement with the prediction of the existence of two condensates for temperatures lower than a well defined temperature (which for Hydrogen is 105~ μK ), based on the QED coherent interaction in a gas of ultracold atoms at a density n > n0 (n0=(1/λ)3, λ being the wave-length of the e.m. modes resonantly coupled to the Hydrogen atoms)
