Theory of a Slow-Light Catastrophe
Ulf Leonhardt ;
Date 23 Nov 2001
Subject Optics; General Physics | physics.optics physics.gen-ph
AbstractIn diffraction catastrophes such as the rainbow the wave nature of light resolves ray singularities and draws delicate interference patterns. In quantum catastrophes such as the black hole the quantum nature of light resolves wave singularities and creates characteristic quantum effects related to Hawking radiation. The paper describes the theory behind a recent proposal [U. Leonhardt, arXiv:physics/0111058, Nature (in press)] to generate a quantum catastrophe of slow light.
