Analogue Gravity Phenomenology Analogue Spacetimes and Horizons, from Theory to Experiment

Analogue Gravity Phenomenology Analogue Spacetimes and Horizons, from Theory to Experiment / edited by Daniele Faccio, Francesco Belgiorno, Sergio Cacciatori, Vittorio Gorini, Stefano Liberati, Ugo Moschella.

Analogue Gravity Phenomenology is a collection of contributions that cover a vast range of areas in physics, ranging from surface wave propagation in fluids to nonlinear optics. The underlying common aspect of all these topics, and hence the main focus and perspective from which they are explained h...
