Analogous Black Holes in Type-III Dirac Semimetal Ni$_3$In$_2$X$_2$ (X = S, Se)

Abstract

Black holes are objects that have a large mass and curve space time, characterized by their event horizon and singularity. Recently, an interesting concept of analogous black holes has emerged in the field of condensed matter physics. In this work, the possibility of realizing analogous black holes in topological material is Ni$_3$In$_2$X$_2$ (X = S, Se) discussed. This work shows that the type-III Dirac cones of the material can lead to the emergence of an event horizon and the formation of a black hole-like region near the Dirac point. In addition, possible experimental signatures of such a system are discussed and the potential implications of an analogous black hole for the study of black hole physics in condensed matter systems.
