The study of quantum fluids, stimulated by the discovery of
superfluidity in liquid helium, has experienced renewed interest
after the observation of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in
ultra-cold atomic gases and the observation a new type of quantum
fluid with specific characteristics derived from its intrinsic
out-of-equilibrium nature. The main objective of this book is to
take a snapshot of the state-of-the-art of this fast moving field
with a special emphasis on the hot topics and new trends. Bringing
together the most active specialists of the two areas (atomic and
polaritonic quantum fluids), we expect that this book will
facilitate the exchange and the collaboration between these two
communities working on subjects with very strong analogies.
