Analogues of gravity-induced instabilities in anisotropic metamaterials
In the context of field theory in curved space-times, it is known that suitable background space-time geometries can trigger instabilities of fields, leading to exponential growth of their (quantum and classical) fluctuations, a phenomenon called vacuum awakening in the quantum context, which in som...
