The 40Ar isotope of argon (its most common form) is a boson, like 4He. (a) Follow the methods of Section 9.7 and estimate the temperature at which argon should become a Bose-Einstein condensate. Use a number density 2.5 ×1028 m-3 for argon. (b) Why isn’t argon observed to become a Bose-Einstein condensate? (Hint: The freezing point of argon is 84 K.)
