In inflationary cosmology, the rapid expansion of early universe resulted in spontaneous production cosmological particles from vacuum fluctuations, observable today cosmic microwave background anisotropies. The analogue particle creation a quantum fluid could provide insight, but an observation has not yet been achieved. Here we report laboratory, using quenched 3-dimensional light. We observe acoustic peaks density power spectrum, close quantitative agreement with quantum-field theoretical...
We implement Bragg-like spectroscopy in a paraxial fluid of light by imprinting analogues short Bragg pulses on the photon using wavefront shaping with spatial modulator. report measurement static structure factor, $S(k)$, and we find quantitative agreement prediction Feynman relation revealing indirectly presence pair-correlated particles fluid. Finally, improve resolution over previous methods obtain dispersion including linear phononic regime for weakly interacting photons low sound velocity.
The nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) is a general used to model the propagation of light in media.This mathematically isomorphic Gross-Pitaevskii (GPE) (Pitaevskij & Stringari, 2016) describing evolution cold atomic ensembles.Recently, growing field quantum fluids (Carusotto Ciuti, 2013) has proven fruitful testbed for several fundamental and classical phenomena such as superfluidity (Michel et al., 2018) or turbulence (Baker-Rasooli 2023).Providing flexible, modern performant framework...
