… before starting with 1D stuff … How to make subsonic to supersonic transitions ? The Atom laser is a beautiful example of a sonic black hole. From Cennini et al. Tuebingen
Why 1D? • Why fermions? • Introducing the non-ideal flow of non-interacting fermions • Superfluidity in 1D? Bosons vs fermions • Presenting an exact microscopic model for Hawking radiation • Hawking temperature: Bosons vs fermions
Description of the flow of non-interacting fermions The many-particles wave-function can be easily written as a Slater determinant (scattering description) reservoir reservoir µL µR 1D channel T=0 T=0 Hydrodynamic description …. ->
What happens if the reservoir on the right is replaced by a sonic event horizon with a non-negligible Hawking temperature? Thermal distribution of right-coming fermions reservoir reservoir µL µR 1D channel T=0 T≠0
What are the quantum effects? Reflection coefficient from the very smooth barrier where is related to the curvature of the potential barrier
What are the quantum effects? Reflection coefficient from the very smooth barrier Expressing Hawking temperature in terms of the external potential parameters
where for a 1D Bose gas in the mean field regime and for a 1D Bose gas in the Tonks-Girardeau regime or for 1D non-interacting Fermi gas Using hydrodynamics of a general 1D quantum fluid is possible to prove that
Aspects of Hawking radiations: • Statistic of fluid’s particles plays no role in Hawking temperature formula • Correlations on opposite side of the event horizon • Incoherence of the radiation when probed only on one side of the horizon • Thermal distribution Which are the aspects that survives kTH ≈ mc2 ?
