Fiber-optical analogue of the event horizon (2007)
Philbin, Thomas G., Kuklewicz, Chris, Robertson, Scott, Hill, Stephen, Konig, Friedrich, Leonhardt, Ulf
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 ultrashort pulses in...
Fiber-optical analogue of the event horizon: Appendices (2007)
Philbin, Thomas G., Kuklewicz, Chris, Robertson, Scott, Hill, Stephen, Konig, Friedrich, Leonhardt, Ulf
We explain the theory behind our fiber-optical analogue of the event horizon and present the experiment in detail.
