- Abstract: Analog Hawking radiation emitted by a perfectly reflecting mirror in
(1+3)-dimensional flat spacetime is investigated. This is accomplished by
studying the reflected frequency and momentum based on Einstein mirror, instead
of the canonical way of solving, if possible, wave equations subjected to a
dynamical Dirichlet boundary condition. In the case of a finite-size mirror,
diffraction pattern appears in the radiation spectrum. Based on the relevant
parameters in the proposed AnaBHEL experiment, where the Hawking temperature TH
= 0.03 eV and the mirror area A = 0.1 mm2, the Hawking photon yield is
estimated to be N = 16 per laser shot (assuming a high reflectivity mirror can
be generated in the proposed AnaBHEL experiment).

For a short wavelength, the image of the black hole with the outgoing mode of the Unruh-Hawking state has the appearance of a star with its surface given by the photon sphere.
For a long wavelength, the entire field of view is bright, and the emission region of Hawking radiation cannot be identified.

We consider the cooperative spontaneous emission of a system of two identical atoms, interacting with the electromagnetic field in the vacuum state.
Using time-dependent theory, we investigate the spectrum of the radiation emitted by the two-atom system.
We show that it is modulated in time, and that the presence of the oscillating mirror can enhance or inhibit the decay rate.

We suggest the measurement of the twist of a chiral mechanical element induced by a gravitational wave.
The induced twist rotates a flat optical mirror on top of this chiral element, leading to the deflection of an incident laser beam.
We estimate a gravitational wave strain sensitivity between 10-21/sqrtHz and 10-23/sqrtHz at around 10 kHz frequency.
