- Abstract: An Unruh-DeWitt (UDW) detector falling radially into a four-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole, coupled linearly to a massless scalar field that has been prepared in the Hartle-Hawking or Unruh state, has recently been shown to exhibit a local extremum in its transition probability near the black hole horizon [K.K. Ng et al., New J. Phys. 24 (2022) 103018]. We show that a similar phenomenon is present in the transition rate of a UDW detector falling radially into a spinless Ba\~nados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole, with the scalar field prepared in the Hartle-Hawking state. We give extensive numerical results as a function of the detector's energy gap, the black hole's mass, and the detector's drop-off radius. Our results suggest that the effect is robust, motivating a search for a similar effect in other black hole spacetimes, and calling for an explanation of the physical origin of the effect.

We consider the transition rate of a detector in the spinless Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole as it freely falls toward and across the horizon.
We find outside the horizon that the rates are qualitatively similar, but with the amplitude in the geon spacetime larger than in the BTZ case.
In general, the detector can act as an early warning system' that both spots the black hole horizon and discerns its interior topology.

We show the first 3D reconstruction of an emission flare recovered from ALMA light curves observed on April 11, 2017.
Our recovery shows compact, bright regions at a distance of roughly six times the event horizon.
It suggests a clockwise rotation in a low-inclination orbital plane, consistent with prior studies.

Accelerating relativistic mirror has long been recognized as a viable setting where the physics mimics that of black hole Hawking radiation.
Chen and Mourou proposed a novel method to realize such a system by traversing an ultra-intense laser through a plasma target with a decreasing density.
An international AnaBHEL Collaboration has been formed with the objectives of observing the analog Hawking radiation and shedding light on the information loss paradox.

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.

We use a driven-dissipative quantum fluid of microcavity polaritons as an analog model of a quantum field theory on a black-hole spacetime.
We show that, in addition to the Hawking effect at the sonic horizon, quantum fluctuations may result in a sizeable stationary excitation of a quasi-normal mode of the field theory.

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.
