That discovery, made in 1995 by Carl Wieman and Eric Cornell at the University of Colorado- Boulder, earned them the 2001 Nobel Prize in Physics, which they shared with Wolfgang Ketterle of MIT.
The wavefunction of this type of system can be approximated by modifying the Schrodinger Equation to account for the "coupling" interactions among the system's constituent particles, a method formulated by Gross and Pitaevskii. Its creation was first confirmed by the observation of a distinctive peak in the velocity-distribution graph of a gas of rubidium atoms cooled to 170 nanokelvin with the use of lasers and evaporative cooling.

FTP, name this doubly-eponymous state of matter observed near absolute zero in which distinct particles of integer spin "condense" to the same quantum state.
