We theoretically study Hawking radiation processes from an analog acoustic black hole in a
flowing superfluid of exciton-polaritons in a one-dimensional semiconductor microcavity …

Using numerical simulations we show how to realize an optical black hole laser, ie an
amplifier formed by travelling refractive index perturbations arranged so as to trap light …

Motivated by recent experimental efforts, we study a black hole analog induced by the
propagation of a strong laser pulse in a nonlinear dielectric medium. Based on the Hopfield …

A recent article [J. Steinhauer, Nat. Phys. 2016, 12, 959] has reported the observation of
quantum Hawking radiation and its entanglement in an analogue black hole. Here, the …

A strong light pulse propagating in a nonlinear Kerr medium produces a change in the
refractive index, which makes light travel at different speeds inside and outside the pulse. By …

Belgiorno et al. have reported on experiments aiming at the detection of (the analogue of)
Hawking radiation using laser filaments [F. Belgiorno et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 203901 …

A recent experimental claim of the detection of analogue Hawking radiation in an optical
system [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 203901 (2010) PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett …

The electromagnetic field is canonically quantized in the presence of a linear, dispersive,
and dissipative medium that is in uniform motion. Specifically we calculate the change in the …

Hawking's 1974 prediction that black holes radiate and evaporate has been hinting at a
hidden connection between general relativity, quantum mechanics and thermodynamics …
