Bose-Einstein condensates are ideally suited to investigate dynamical phenomena emerging in the many-body limit, such as the build-up of long-range coherence, superfluidity or spontaneous symmetry breaking. We study the thermalization dynamics of an easy-plane ferromagnet in a homogeneous one-dimensional spinor Bose gas of 87Rb. This is demonstrated by the dynamic emergence of effective long-range coherence of the spin field. For a thermalized state we verify spin-superfluidity by experimentally testing Landau’s criterion and reveal the structure of one massive and two massless modes, which are a consequence of explicit and spontaneous symmetry breaking, respectively. Our experiments allow us to observe the thermalization of an easy-plane ferromagnetic Bose gas. The relevant momentum-resolved observables are in agreement with a thermal prediction obtained from a microscopic model in the Bogoliubov approximation.
