We will develop and test a new theory to describe the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), and gain insight into the physics of coherence, turbulence, and phase transitions. This proposal will strengthen Australia's reputation for excellence in the field of ultra-cold gases, and develop significant international linkages in this important area of physics. We will train a number of students in high-level problem solving and computing, transferrable skills ever more important in Australia's growing knowledge-based economy. Improved understanding of how BECs behave will assist in their development as sensitive measurement devices, with possible intellectual property benefits in the future as we learn to tame these unique systems.

我们将开发和测试一种新的理论来描述玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚体(BEC)的动力学，并深入了解相干、湍流和相变的物理。这项建议将加强澳大利亚在超冷气体领域的卓越声誉，并在这一重要的物理领域发展重要的国际联系。我们将培训一批学生在高级问题解决和计算方面的能力，这些技能在澳大利亚日益增长的知识经济中变得越来越重要。更好地理解BEC的行为将有助于它们作为灵敏测量设备的发展，随着我们学习驯服这些独特的系统，未来可能会获得知识产权方面的好处。
