  • Eric turned 40

  • Eric won a Grammy

  • Eric received the Nobel Prize in Physics

  • Eric became an astronaut

Answer

Eric received the Nobel Prize in Physics four years after synthesizing the Bose–Einstein condensate. This is because the Bose–Einstein condensate is a state of matter that is made up of atoms that are all in the same quantum state. This means that all of the atoms in the condensate are moving at the same speed and in the same direction.
