Phonon creation by gravitational waves
We show that gravitational waves create phonons in a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC). A traveling spacetime distortion produces particle creation resonances that correspond to the dynamical Casimir effect in a BEC phononic field contained in a cavity-type trap. We propose to use this effect to detect...
