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...

Unruh effect and information flow (2020)

We study memory effects as information backflow for an accelerating two-level detector weakly interacting with a scalar field in the Minkowski vacuum. This is the framework of the well-known Unruh effect: the detector behaves as if it were in a therm... Read More about Unruh effect and information flow.
