Abstract
Macroscopic
phase coherence is one of the most remarkable manifestations of quantum
mechanics,
yet it
seems to be the inevitable ground state of interacting many-body systems.
In the last
two decades, the familiar examples of superfluid He and conventional
superconductors have been joined
by exotic
and high temperature superconductors, ultra-cold atomic gases, both bosonic and
fermionic, and recently
systems of
excitons, magnons, and exciton-photon superpositions called polaritons, the
subject of this talk.
