Analogue spacetimes from nonrelativistic Goldstone modes in spinor condensates

Justin H. Wilson,1, 2 Jonathan B. Curtis,3 and Victor M. Galitski3 1Department of Physics and Astronomy, Center for Materials Theory, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854 USA 2Institute of Quantum Information and Matter and Department of Physics, Caltech, CA 91125, USA 3Joint Quantum Institute and Condensed Matter Theory Center, Department of Physics, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742-4111, USA (Dated: January 17, 2020) It is well established that linear dispersive modes in a flowing quantum fluid behave as though they are coupled to an Einstein-Hilbert metric and exhibit a host of phenomena coming from quantum field theory in curved space, including Hawking radiation. We extend this analogy to any nonrel- ativistic Goldstone mode in a flowing spinor Bose-Einstein condensate. In addition to showing the linear dispersive result for all such modes, we show that the quadratically dispersive modes couple to a special nonrelativistic spacetime called a Newton-Cartan geometry. The kind of spacetime (Einstein-Hilbert or Newton-Cartan) is intimately linked to the mean-field phase of the conden- sate. To illustrate the general result, we further provide the specific theory in the context of a pseudo-spin-1/2 condensate where we can tune between relativistic and nonrelativistic geometries. We uncover the fate of Hawking radiation upon such a transition: it vanishes and remains absent in the Newton-Cartan geometry despite the fact that any fluid flow creates a horizon for certain wave numbers. Finally, we use the coupling to different spacetimes to compute and relate various energy and momentum currents in these analogue systems. While this result is general, present day ex- periments can realize these different spacetimes including the magnon modes for spin-1 condensates such as 87Rb, 7Li, 14K (Newton-Cartan), and 23Na (Einstein-Hilbert).

In such a case, To evaluate (Wωα,Wω0α0 ), we establish a couple of the operator equation looks like T facts. If we let wk = [uk, vk] , then we have

If With the proper normalization and putting back in the we trace it back in time, it was related to a scattering dependence on frequency, the number of particles leaving process at the horizon itself, so in terms of three other the horizon at frequency ω is positive frequency modes

This immediately gives us how to re- and negative norm channels the “super-Hawking” region. 20

In this case, we have two modes in the Hawking process These equations can be similarly related to a Bogoliubov that need to be backwards scattered: one positive norm transformation, and we can find the number of Hawking and the other negative norm.
