Researchers in the US have made ultracold molecules from a gas of
fermionic atoms for the first time. Deborah Jin of the National Institute
of Standards and Technology in Boulder and colleagues at the JILA
laboratory, also in Boulder, have created more than a quarter of a
million molecules in their experiment. The result is an important step
towards making molecular Bose-Einstein condensates and an exotic
fermionic superfluid (C Regal et al. 2003 Nature 424 47).
