Analogue gravity is a research programme which investigates analogues of general
relativistic gravitational fields within other physical systems, typically but not exclusively …

Liquid crystals are widely known for their technological uses in displays, electro-optics,
photonics and nonlinear optics, but these applications typically rely on defining and …

Gravity simulators are laboratory systems in which small excitations such as sound or
surface waves, behave as fields propagating on a curved spacetime geometry. The analogy …

We study the dynamics of a supersonically expanding, ring-shaped Bose-Einstein
condensate both experimentally and theoretically. The expansion redshifts long-wavelength …

We propose an experimental scheme to observe the Gibbons-Hawking effect in the acoustic
analog of a (1+ 1)-dimensional de Sitter universe, produced in an expanding, cigar-shaped …

Explicitly covariant analytical expressions are derived that describe the boundaries of
shadows cast by massive particles scattered by a gravitating object. This covers scenarios …

We show that a variety of cosmologically motivated effective quasiparticle space-times can
be produced in harmonically trapped superfluid Bose and Fermi gases. We study the analog …

Liquid crystals generally support orientational singularities of the director field known as
topological defects. These latter modify transport properties in their vicinity as if the geometry …

We study the gravitational lensing of acoustic charged black holes in strong and weak field
limit approximations. For this purpose, we first numerically obtain the deflection limit …

This paper is motivationally based on the study revealing the characteristics of Acoustic
Schwarzschild BHs in respect of particle dynamics, and weak gravitational plasma lensing …
