• Abstract: We carry out the first investigation of the entanglement and mutual information harvesting protocols for detectors freely falling into a black hole. Working in $(1+1)$-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole spacetime, we consider two pointlike Unruh-DeWitt (UDW) detectors in different combinations of free-falling and static trajectories. Employing a generalization of relative velocity suitable for curved spacetimes, we find that the amount of correlations extracted from the black hole vacuum, at least outside the near-horizon regime, is largely kinematic in origin (i.e. it is mostly due to the relative velocities of the detectors). Second, correlations can be harvested purely from the black hole vacuum even when the detectors are causally disconnected by the event horizon. Finally, we show that the previously known `entanglement shadow' near the horizon is indeed absent for the case of two free-falling-detectors, since their relative gravitational redshift remains finite as the horizon is crossed, in accordance with the equivalence principle.

  We numerically compute the detector's transition rate for different values of black hole mass, black hole angular momentum, detector energy gap, and field boundary conditions at infinity. Our results lead to a more generalized description of the behaviour of particle detectors in BTZ black hole spacetime.

  We investigate the correlation harvesting protocol for mutual information between two Unruh-DeWitt detectors in a static BTZ black hole spacetime. We find that, unlike the entanglement harvesting scenario, harvested mutual information is zero only when a detector reaches an event horizon.

  We propose BH-NeRF, a novel tomography approach that leverages gravitational lensing to recover the continuous 3D emission field near a black hole. Our method captures the unknown emission field using a continuous volumetric function parameterized by a coordinate-based neural network. This work takes the first steps in showing how future measurements from the Event Horizon Telescope could be used to recover evolving 3D emission around the supermassive black hole in our Galactic center.

• Entanglement Harvesting with a Twist [0.0]
  We investigate entanglement outside of an $mathbbRP$ geon by considering the entanglement structure of the vacuum state of a quantum field in this spacetime. We find that detectors with a small energy gap harvest more entanglement in the BTZ spacetime. As the energy gap increases, the detectors harvest more entanglement in a geon spacetime.

  We report a fermionic lattice-model-type realization of an analogue black hole by using a chain of 10 superconducting transmon qubits with interactions mediated by 9 transmon-type tunable couplers. The quantum walks of quasi-particle in the curved spacetime reflect the gravitational effect near the black hole, resulting in the behaviour of stimulated Hawking radiation.

  We study the phenomenon of transmission across the singularity that separates the two half-cylinders. All the local realisations of the free (Laplace-Beltrami) quantum Hamiltonian are examined as non-equivalent protocols of transmission/reflection. This allows to comprehend the distinguished status of the so-called bridging' transmission protocol previously identified in the literature.

• Entanglement Amplification from Rotating Black Holes [0.0]
  We study entanglement harvesting in the presence of a rotating BTZ black hole. We find that rotation can significantly amplify the harvested vacuum entanglement. We also find that the entanglement shadow -- a region near the black hole from which entanglement cannot be extracted -- is diminished in size as the black hole's angular momentum increases.

  We find that the Unruh vacuum agrees very well with the Vaidya vacuum near the horizon even for finite-time interactions. All four vacua have different capacities for creating correlations between the detectors, with the Vaidya vacuum interpolating between the Unruh vacuum near the horizon and the Boulware vacuum far from the horizon.
