Measurement of stimulated Hawking emission in an analogue system

S Weinfurtner, EW Tedford, MCJ Penrice, WG Unruh… - Physical review …, 2011 - APS
Hawking argued that black holes emit thermal radiation via a quantum spontaneous
emission. To address this issue experimentally, we utilize the analogy between the …

Hawking radiation from ultrashort laser pulse filaments

F Belgiorno, SL Cacciatori, M Clerici, V Gorini… - Physical review …, 2010 - APS
Event horizons of astrophysical black holes and gravitational analogues have been
predicted to excite the quantum vacuum and give rise to the emission of quanta, known as …

Observation of noise correlated by the Hawking effect in a water tank

LP Euvé, F Michel, R Parentani, TG Philbin… - Physical review …, 2016 - APS
We measured the power spectrum and two-point correlation function for the randomly
fluctuating free surface on the downstream side of a stationary flow with a maximum Froude …

Quantum Čerenkov radiation: spectral cutoffs and the role of spin and orbital angular momentum

I Kaminer, M Mutzafi, A Levy, G Harari… - Physical Review X, 2016 - APS
We show that the well-known Čerenkov effect contains new phenomena arising from the
quantum nature of charged particles. The Čerenkov transition amplitudes allow coupling …

Casimir light in dispersive nanophotonics

The theory of Hawking radiation in laboratory analogues

SJ Robertson - Journal of Physics B: Atomic, Molecular and …, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
Hawking radiation, despite being known to theoretical physics for nearly 40 years, remains
elusive and undetected. It also suffers, in its original context of gravitational black holes, from …

Analogue gravity and the Hawking effect: historical perspective and literature review

CR Almeida, MJ Jacquet - The European Physical Journal H, 2023 - Springer
Abstract Reasoning by analogies permeates theoretical developments in physics and
astrophysics, motivated by the unreachable nature of many phenomena at play. For …
