• Abstract summary: 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.

• Abstract: We consider the transition rate of a freely falling Unruh-DeWitt (UDW) detector, coupled linearly to a massless scalar quantum field prepared in the Hartle-Hawking-Israel state, as a probe of the interior of a black hole. Specifically, we consider the transition rate of a detector in the spinless Ba\~nados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole as it freely falls toward and across the horizon and compare it to the corresponding situation for an $\mathbb{R}\text{P}^{2}$ geon. Both the BTZ black hole and its geon counterpart are quotients of $\text{AdS}_3$ spacetime that are identical exterior to the horizon but have different interior topologies. 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. Once the detector crosses the horizon, there are notable distinctions characterized by different discontinuities in the temporal derivative of the response rate. These discontinuities can appear outside the horizon if the detector is switched on at a sufficiently early time, within the past white hole horizon. In general, the detector can act as an `early warning system' that both spots the black hole horizon and discerns its interior topology.

Our results lead to a more generalized description of the behaviour of particle detectors in BTZ black hole spacetime.

• 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.

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.
