Third-order spatial correlations for ultracold atoms

We present here the first measurement of the third-order spatial correlation function for atoms, made possible by cooling a metastable helium cloud to create an ultracold thermal ensemble just above the Bose–Einstein condensation point. The resulting large correlation length well exceeds the spatial...
