	Carl Wieman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Carl Edwin Wieman (born March 26, 1951) is a Nobel-prize winning American physicist of the University of Colorado at Boulder who (with Eric Allin Cornell), in 1995, produced the first true Bose-Einstein condensate.
		Wieman earned his B.S. in 1973 from MIT and his PhD.
		In 2007 Wieman will join the University of British Columbia physics faculty and will head a well-endowed science education program there; he will retain a 20% appointment at CU to head the science education project he founded in Colorado.

		Carl Wieman announced in a news conference Monday that he will leave his faculty position at the CU in January 2007 for a position at the University of British Colombia.
		Wieman is a distinguished professor, Nobel laureate, Professor of the Year recipient (2004) and respected teacher on the Boulder campus.
		Wieman said in a news release Monday that a lot of his decision to leave rested in the realization that securing private support and public grants to support a major science education initiative at CU might not be feasible.

		Wieman, a distinguished physics professor at the University of Colorado at Boulder, presented his research in creating and manipulating the condensates to two packed auditoriums.
		Wieman and his team were the first to create the condensates, a feat accomplished in June 1995.
		Wieman took a portion of his Nobel Prize earnings to help launch the Physics Education Technology Project, a joint effort between the University of Colorado and the Kavli Institute in California, which will develop applets to help teach science to high school and college students.

	Coverage of Carl Wieman's talk
		Wieman, with his co-discoverer of BEC, Eric Cornell of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, led a team of scientists in the late 1980s in experiments to achieve the extremely cold temperature -- the closest to absolute zero ever recorded.
		Ironically, Wieman discovered that the very photons that make it possible for the atoms to slow down are also the photons that prevent the temperature from reaching absolute zero.
		Wieman's achievement allows for the exploration of a whole new area of the quantum world.

	University of Alabama News
		Wieman was awarded the 2001 Nobel Prize in physics for his landmark creation of the world’s first Bose-Einstein condensate, a new form of matter that is created when a laboratory apparatus is used to chill a group of atoms to just a few hundred billionths of a degree above absolute zero.
		Wieman was the first physicist to achieve a new form of matter called the Bose-Einstein condensate, a discovery that won him the Nobel Prize in 2001.
		Wieman, a 1973 graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, also holds a doctorate from Stanford University and an honorary Doctorate of Science from the University of Chicago.

	Nobel Prize winner Carl Wieman was an assistant professor from 1979 to 1984 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Wieman joined the U-M faculty immediately following his Ph.D. from Stanford in 1977 and was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics from 1979 to 1984.
		"Carl began the research that eventually led to his Nobel Prize work here at Michigan, although of course it was in its very early stages then, and many of the key advances happened several years after he went to Colorado," said Professor Philip Bucksbaum.
		Wieman, Cornell and Wolfgang Ketterle of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology were honored for their work on cooling and corralling thousands to millions of individual atoms to form an entirely new type of matter, named a Bose-Einstein Condensate.
