Dumb holes: analogues for black holes.
نویسنده
چکیده
The use of sonic analogues to black and white holes, called dumb or deaf holes, to understand the particle production by black holes is reviewed. The results suggest that the black hole particle production is a low-frequency and low-wavenumber process.

Dumb Holes and the Effects of High Frequencies on Black Hole Evaporation
The naive calculation of black hole evaporation makes the thermal emission depend on the arbitrary high frequency behaviour of the theory where the theory is certainly wrong. Using the sonic analog to black holes– dumb holes– I show numerically that a change in the dispersion relation at high frequencies does not seem to alter the evaporation process, lending weight to the reality of the black ...
متن کاملTowards the Observation of Hawking Radiation in Bose Einstein Condensates
Acoustic analogues of black holes (dumb holes) are generated when a supersonic fluid flow entrains sound waves and forms a trapped region from which sound cannot escape. The surface of no return, the acoustic horizon, is qualitatively very similar to the event horizon of a general relativity black hole. In particular Hawking radiation (a thermal bath of phonons with temperature proportional to ...
متن کاملSupersymmetric, Cold and Lukewarm Black Holes in Cosmological Einstein-maxwell Theory
In flat space, the extreme Reissner-Nordstrøm (RN) black hole is distinguished by its coldness (vanishing Hawking temperature) and its supersymmetry. We examine RN solutions to Einstein-Maxwell theory with a cosmological constant Λ, classifying the cold black holes and, for positive Λ, the " lukewarm " black holes at the same temperature as the de Sitter thermal background. For negative Λ, we c...
متن کاملThe case for artificial black holes.
The event horizon is predicted to generate particles from the quantum vacuum, an effect that bridges three areas of physics--general relativity, quantum mechanics and thermodynamics. The quantum radiation of real black holes is too feeble to be detectable, but black-hole analogues may probe several aspects of quantum black holes. In this paper, we explain in simple terms some of the motivations...
متن کاملOn Quantum Analogues of P-brane Black Holes
In a multidimensional model with several scalar fields and an m -form we deal with classical spherically symmetric solutions with one (electric or magnetic) p -brane and Ricci-flat internal spaces and the corresponding solutions to the Wheeler–DeWitt (WDW) equation. Classical black holes are considered and their quantum analogues (e.g. for M2 and M5 extremal solutions in D = 11 supergravity, el...
