This project explores the behavior of light in nonlinear media, treating photon fluids like fluids in physics. It aims to create artificial spacetime geometries and investigate phenomena such as superfluidity and vorticity, potentially enhancing our understanding of quantum effects in these systems.
Intense light beams propagating in nonlinear defocusing media behave identically to fluids.
This raises the fascinating perspective of studying fluid dynamics using light.
These ``photon fluids"" and have been shown to exhibit remarkable properties such as superfluidity and condensation (similar to Bose-Einstein condensation).
Here, we wish to use photon fluids for the creation of artificial flowing spacetime geometries otherwise thought to be the object of more complex and less (experimentally)…
