Black Hole Lasers Revisited

Ulf Leonhardt, Thomas G. Philbin

The production of Hawking radiation by a single horizon is not dependent on the high-frequency dispersion relation of the radiated field. When there are two horizons, however, Corl…

Fiber-optical analogue of the event horizon: Appendices

Thomas G. Philbin, Chris Kuklewicz, Scott Robertson +3

We explain the theory behind our fiber-optical analogue of the event horizon and present the experiment in detail.

Fiber-optical analogue of the event horizon

Thomas G. Philbin, Chris Kuklewicz, Scott Robertson +3

The physics at the event horizon resembles the behavior of waves in moving media. Horizons are formed where the local speed of the medium exceeds the wave velocity. We use ultrasho…

Observation of negative-frequency waves in a water tank: A classical analogue to the Hawking effect?

Germain Rousseaux, Christian Mathis, Philippe Maissa +2

The conversion of positive-frequency waves into negative-frequency waves at the event horizon is the mechanism at the heart of the Hawking radiation of black holes. In black-hole a…

Quantum optics of spatial transformation media

Ulf Leonhardt, Thomas G. Philbin

Transformation media are at the heart of invisibility devices, perfect lenses and artificial black holes. In this paper, we consider their quantum theory. We show how transformatio…
