BECCAL - Quantum Gases on the ISS — •Lisa Wörner^1,2, Christian Schubert^1,3, Jens Grosse^1,2, Claus Braxmaier^1,2, Ernst Rasel^1,2, Wolfgang Schleich^1,4, and the BECCAL collaboration^{1,2,3,4,5,6,7} — ¹German Aerospace Center, DLR — ²University of Bremen — ³Leibniz University Hanover — ⁴University Ulm — ⁵Humboldt University Berlin — ⁶Johannes Gutenberg University — ⁷Ferdinand Braun Institute

BECCAL (Bose-Einstein Condensate and Cold Atom Laboratory) is a bilateral NASA-DLR mission dedicated to execute experiments with ultra-cold and condensed atoms in the microgravity environment of the international space station. It builds on the heritage of NASA's CAL and the DLR founded QUANTUS and MAIUS missions. BECCAL aims to enable a broad range of experiments, covering atom interferometry, coherent atom optics, scalar Bose-Einstein gases, spinor Bose-Einstein gases and gas mixtures, strongly interaction gases and molecules, and quantum information. This contribution gives an overview over the current status of BECCAL and its anticipated capabilities for scientific investigations.

BECCAL is supported by DLR with funds provided by BMWi under Grants Nos. 50WP1700-1706.
