Measuring the entanglement of analogue Hawking radiation by the density-density correlation function

Jeff Steinhauer

We theoretically study the entanglement of Hawking radiation pairs emitted by an analogue black hole. We find that this entanglement can be measured by the experimentally accessible density-density correlation function, vastly simplifying the measurement. We find that while the Hawking radiation exiting the black hole might be Planck-distributed, the correlations between the Hawking radiation and the partner particles has a distribution which is weaker but broader than Planckian. Thus, the high-energy tail of the distribution of Hawking radiation should be entangled, whereas the low-energy part should not be. This confirms previous studies. The full Peres-Horodecki criterion is considered, as well as a simpler criterion in the stationary, homogeneous case. Our method applies to systems which are sufficiently cold that the thermal phonons can be neglected.We theoretically study the entanglement of Hawking radiation pairs emitted by an analogue black hole.

Density correlations from analog Hawking radiation in the presence of atom losses

Yash Palan, Sebastian Wüster

The sonic analog of Hawking radiation can now be experimentally recreated in Bose-Einstein condensates that contain an acoustic black hole. In these experiments the signal strength and approximate analog Hawking temperature increase for denser condensates, which however also suffer increased atom losses from inelastic collisions. To determine how these affect analog Hawking radiation, we numerically simulate creation of the latter in a Bose-Einstein condensate in the presence of atomic losses, including nonunitary quantum field dynamics using the truncated Wigner approximation. In particular we explore modifications of density-density correlations through which the radiation has been analyzed so far. We find no evidence that losses directly alter the basic picture of the analog Hawking effect; instead all consequences that we find are indirect: Losses increase the contrast of the correlation signal, which we attribute to condensate heating by the losses, in turn leading to a component of stimulated radiation in addition to the spontaneous one. Other indirect consequences are the modification of the white-hole instability pattern and a change of slope of the Hawking tongue.The sonic analog of Hawking radiation can now be experimentally recreated in Bose-Einstein condensates that contain an acoustic black hole.
