About the speaker：

Randall G. Hulet, a pressor of physics, presently he occupies at Rice University the Fayez Sarofim chair in experimental physics. He received several awards, among which the Davisson-Germer Prize of the American Physical Society and the I.I. Rabi Prize of the American Physical Society, etc. He is a member of American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a Fellow of the American Physical Society and a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Professor Hulet is well known for his many important contributions to atomic physics. In particular, he played a leading role in the development of laser cooling and laser trapping of atoms.He was for the first to realize the Bose-Einstein condensation in an atomic gas with attractive interactions. He published more than 100 papers in the international top magazines such as Nature, Science and Physical Review Letters, etc. So far, his publications have been cited more than 20 thousand times.
