Abstract

Both theoretical and experimental activity in BEC has expanded dramatically in the three years since the first observation of BEC in a dilute atomic gas. One is tempted to ask, why? Why is there so much interest in the field? Is this burst of activity something that could have been foreseen, in, say, 1990?
