Bose-Einstein statistics

Bose-Einstein statistics describe how particles known as bosons behave at very low temperatures. Unlike ordinary particles, bosons can occupy the same quantum state freely. This leads to strange phenomena, such as Bose-Einstein condensates, where a group of bosons act as a single entity, exhibiting unique properties. This statistical framework, developed by Satyendra Nath Bose and Albert Einstein, explains how certain particles, like photons and helium-4 atoms, can cluster together, resulting in effects not seen in classical physics. It highlights the collective behavior of particles, showing how quantum mechanics influences the macroscopic world.
