- Authors: Ivan Agullo, Anthony J. Brady and Dimitrios Kranas
- Abstract summary: We study the propagation of weak wave-packet modes in an optical medium containing the analog of a pair white-black hole.
We find that aspects of the Hawking effect that are of quantum origin, such as quantum entanglement, are extremely fragile to the influence of inefficiencies and noise.

- Abstract: This work introduces a synergistic combination of analytical methods and
numerical simulations to study the propagation of weak wave-packet modes in an
optical medium containing the analog of a pair white-black hole. We apply our
tools to analyze several aspects of the evolution, such as (i) the region of
the parameter space where the analogy with the Hawking effect is on firm ground
and (ii) the influence that ambient thermal noise and detector inefficiencies
have on the observability of the Hawking effect. We find that aspects of the
Hawking effect that are of quantum origin, such as quantum entanglement, are
extremely fragile to the influence of inefficiencies and noise. We propose a
protocol to amplify and observe these quantum aspects, based on seeding the
process with a single-mode squeezed input.

We study signatures of fractional statistics via quasiparticle interferometry, and we assess its robustness to diagonal and off-diagonal disorder.
A useful counterpart of our scheme is that it provides a clear test of the quantumness' of these devices, since the signatures that we are looking for hinge on quantum coherence and quantum interference effects in the system.
