The Unruh effect predicts a thermal response for an accelerated detector moving through the vacuum. Here we propose an interferometric scheme to observe an analogue of the circular Unruh effect using a localized laser coupled to a Bose-Einstein conde...

Unruh and analogue Unruh temperatures for circular motion in 3+1 and 2+1 dimensions (2020)
Journal Article

The Unruh effect states that a uniformly linearly accelerated observer with proper acceleration a experiences Minkowski vacuum as a thermal state in the temperature Tlin=a/(2?), operationally measurable via the detailed balance condition between exci...

Quasinormal Mode Oscillations in an Analogue Black Hole Experiment (2020)
Journal Article
Torres, T., Patrick, S., Richartz, M., & Weinfurtner, S. (2020). Quasinormal Mode Oscillations in an Analogue Black Hole Experiment. Physical Review Letters, 125(1), Article 011301. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.011301

The late stages of the relaxation process of a black hole are expected to depend only on its mass and angular momentum and not on the details of its formation process. Inspired by recent analogue gravity experiments, which demonstrate that certain bl... Read More about Quasinormal Mode Oscillations in an Analogue Black Hole Experiment.
