What is the Bose-Einstein theory?

Open in App
Solution

Bose Einstein theory is a theory for behavior of a large collection of light like particles. This branch of mechanics is known as quantum statistical mechanics. Indian scientist Satyendranath Bose first mathematically formulated the theory for light and sent it to Albert Einstein who extended the theory for material particles. Therefore the theory came to be known as Bose-Einstein quantum statistical mechanics. Using the theory they predicted the fifth state of matter known as Bose-Einstein condensate and this theory is of immense importance in the mathematical study of super conductivity and superfluidity.
