At the beginning of the article, it mentions the phrase "the 5th state of matter", which I've heard before; personally, I find it quite misleading. Even if you exclude all of the intermediary states and all of the non-classical states (things like glasses and liquid crystals), there are a lot of exotic states of matter. The Wikipedia page for "States of matter" includes a lot of them[0]. Though perhaps the idea is that there is something fundamental enough about the Bode-Einstein condensate that it should count as the fifth fundamental state of matter? On an unrelated note, its interesting to…

from what i've heard attempts to prove the Riemann hypothesis this way have been a dead end. mathematicians agree the heuristics concerning random matrices and quantum chaos are true but Physics of the Riemann Hypothesis http://arxiv.org/abs/1101.3116 Quantum chaos, random matrix theory, and the Riemann zeta-function http://www.math.harvard.edu/~bourgade/papers/PoincareSeminar... The quantum physics methods being used to solve the Riemann hypothesis can solve easier number theory problems as well. We can look at the structure of the primes more directly.…
