Birth of a quasi-stationary black hole in an outcoupled Bose–Einstein condensate

We study the evolution of an initially confined atom condensate, which is progressively outcoupled by gradually lowering the confining barrier on one side. The goal is to identify protocols that best lead to a quasi-stationary sonic black hole separating regions of subsonic and supersonic flow. An o...
