Consider a collection of N, rubidium-87 (rubidium is atomic number 37) atoms confined inside a cube with sides of length 10 um. 1. Consider instead rubidium-88. Why would you not observe Bose-Einstein condensation? For both N, and N2 rubidium 88 atoms, what would the maximum kinetic energy of an individual atom be? N1=10000 N2=100000
