Simulating Hawking radiation in quantum many-body systems: deviations from the thermal spectrum

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2025-08-08 v3 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We investigate a recently proposed one-to-one correspondence between quantum field theories in two-dimensional curved spacetime and quantum many-body systems, which enables the simulation of Hawking radiation in static background spacetimes. In particular, we demonstrate that deviations from the thermal spectrum, as predicted by the well-known tunneling method, can be observed in many-body simulations.
