Phonons have the characteristic linear dispersion relation of massless relativistic particles. They arise as low energy excitations of Bose-Einstein condensates and, in nonhomogeneous situations, are governed by a space- and time-dependent…

We revisit the Schwarzschild singularity in a semiclassical setting where the background geometry is classical and quantum effects enter through Bohmian (quantal) trajectories associated with a Klein Gordon wave packet. Using the…
