Inertial motion superradiance, the emission of radiation by an initially unexcited system moving inertially but superluminally through a medium, has long been known. Rotational superradiance, the amplification of radiation by a rotating…

Particles or waves scattered from a rotating black hole can be amplified through the process of Penrose superradiance, though this cannot currently be observed in an astrophysical setting. However, analogue gravity studies can create…

We consider the focusing wave equation with energy supercritical nonlinearity in dimension four. We prove that any radial solution that remains bounded in the critical Sobolev space is global and scatters to free waves as $t \to \pm…

The collective behavior of ensembles of atoms has been studied in-depth since the seminal paper of Dicke [R. H. Dicke, Phys. Rev. 93, 99 (1954)], where he demonstrated that a group of emitters in collective states is able to radiate with…

Analogue systems are a powerful instrument to investigate and understand in a controlled setting many general-relativistic effects. Here, we focus on superradiant-triggered instabilities and quasi-normal modes. We consider a compressible…

We have shown that, as in the case of black holes, an ergosphere itself with no event horizon inside can evaporate spontaneously, giving energy radiation to spatial infinity until the ergoregion disappears. However, the feature of his…

We construct a model of cooperative superradiant emission from a highly relativistic multi-particle source. We revise an existing model of the literature for a relativistic two-level particle, and construct from it a Hamiltonian describing…

We consider the wave equation with an energy supercritical focusing nonlinearity in general odd dimensions. We prove that any radial solution that remains bounded in the critical Sobolev space is global and scatters to a linear solution.
