Bose-Einstein condensates have been realized with cold atomic gases, exciton-polaritons and more recently with photons in dye-filled optical microcavities. In the latter system, grand canonical Bose-Einstein condensation has been demonstrated with enhanced statistical number fluctuations in the condensed state. Here we report on the observation of a transition between an oscillatory and a bi-exponential phase of the second order coherence of the condensate. The experiments are performed in a dye-filled optical microcavity at conditions very close to thermal equilibrium, with pumping and loss resulting in time-reversal symmetry breaking. The results show that photon Bose-Einstein condensates in a part of the phase diagram are separated by a phase transition from the non-equilibrium phenomenon of lasing.
