Event horizons and ergoregions in 3He
T. A. Jacobson, G. E. Volovik
Abstract
Event horizons for fermion quasiparticles naturally arise in moving textures in superconductors and Fermi superfluids. We discuss the example of a planar soliton moving in superfluid 3He-A, which is closely analogous to a charged rotating black hole. The moving soliton will radiate quasiparticles via the Hawking effect at a temperature of about 5 μK, and via vacuum polarization induced by the effective `electromagnetic field' and `ergoregion'. Superfluid 3He-A thus appears to be a useful system for experimental and theoretical simulations of quantum effects related to event horizons and ergoregions.
