Abstract
The phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation is traditionally associated with and experimentally verified for low temperatures: either of nano-Kelvin scale for alkali atoms [1-3] or room temperatures for quasi-particles [4,5] or photons in two dimensions [6]. Here we demonstrate out of first principles that for certain initial conditions non-equilibrium plasma at relativistic temperatures of billions of Kelvin undergoes condensation, predicted by Zeldovich and Levich in their seminal work [7]. We determine the necessary conditions for the onset of condensation and discuss the possibilities to observe such a phenomenon in laboratory and astrophysical conditions.
