Dumb holes: analogues for black holes

Dumb holes: analogues for black holes

The use of sonic analogues to black and white holes, called dumb or deaf holes, to understand the particle production by black holes is reviewed. The results suggest that the black hole particle production is a low-frequency and low-wavenumber process.
