Cosmological particle production in a quantum field simulator as a quantum mechanical scattering problem

CF Schmidt, Á Parra-López, M Tolosa-Simeón… - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
The production of quantum field excitations or particles in cosmological spacetimes is a
hallmark prediction of curved quantum field theory. The generation of cosmological …

Anisotropic optics and gravitational lensing of tilted Weyl fermions

V Könye, L Mertens, C Morice, D Chernyavsky… - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
We show that tilted Weyl semimetals with a spatially varying tilt of the Weyl cones provide a
platform for studying analogs to problems in anisotropic optics as well as curved spacetime …

Spinning black hole in a fluid

S Dalui, AK Mitra, D Mitra, S Ghosh - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
In this paper, we propose a new analog gravity example—a spinning (or Kerr) black hole in
an extended fluid model; the latter was derived in an earlier work [AK Mitra and S. Ghosh …

Gravitational lensing and tunneling of mechanical waves in synthetic curved spacetime

S Jana, L Sirota - Physical Review Research, 2023 - APS
Black holes are considered among the most fascinating objects that exist in our universe
since in the classical formalism nothing, not even light, can escape from their vicinity due to …

Real-time creation of curved space-time for gravitational lensing in phononic crystals

S Jana, L Sirota - … Congress on Artificial Materials for Novel …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We propose a method to generate an artificial curved space-time metric that mimics the
