Analogous Hawking Radiation from Astrophysical Black Hole Accretion

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the concept of Analogous Hawking Radiation as it relates to acoustic black holes and accretion matter. Participants explore whether this radiation consists solely of acoustic oscillations or if it involves more complex phenomena such as gravitational waves. Key references include a 1997 paper on black hole acoustics and a discussion on string/texture vibrations, which are proposed as remnants from the Inflationary Period of the Big Bang. The conversation highlights the need for a deeper understanding of the relationship between acoustic properties and black hole dynamics.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of acoustic black holes and their properties
  • Familiarity with Hawking Radiation and its analogs
  • Knowledge of gravitational waves and their implications in astrophysics
  • Basic concepts of string theory and vacuum energy
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the properties of acoustic black holes and their formation mechanisms
  • Study the implications of gravitational waves in the context of black hole physics
  • Examine the 1997 paper on black hole acoustics for foundational insights
  • Explore the concept of string/texture vibrations and their role in cosmology
USEFUL FOR

Astronomers, physicists, and researchers interested in black hole dynamics, acoustic phenomena, and theoretical physics will benefit from this discussion.

Hi everyone

Im trying to understand a paper(title of the thread)
arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0404482

Just woundering what an acoustic black hole and acoustic event horizon would actually be?
Is the Analogous Hawking Radiation just ascoustic osccilations in the Accretion matter? like the acoustic ossilation that are present in the CMB?

Or is it something more complicated like black hole ringing, in which case do gravity waves come into play? they(the paper) never mention gravity waves so is it just ascoustic vibrations?

If so how is this analogous Hawking Radiation?

Interesting paper though ( i think)

I would contend that acoustic oscillations are merely string/texture vibrations against the background vacuum energy.

Its similar to the properties of acoustic wave propagation and epicyclic oscillations within certain tori objects.

What do you mean by "string/texture"? (Just asking, not contesting).

Most (I think) simply attribute the acoustics to properties of accretion matter based on size (mass) and energy. There is a good paper from 1997, before the "recent" famous detection, about what might cause and must be the source of BH acoustics. See:

String/Texture Vibrations

In my research;

String/texture vibrations are “hypothetical” remnants (of Earth-mass size for each 90+/-cm of length) from the Inflationary Period of the Big Bang. They possesses enigmatic gravitational fields (affecting 4-11 dimensions) which are electrical superconductors. You could call them “imperfections in the geometry of space”. They relate (and probably explain) the resultant evolution of the D-F string network in compact dimensions.

The only reference “in peer-reviewed journals” I can find is in paper form. It is a document which comes close to explaining how I picture them;
“Antigravity Beams from Cosmic Strings:
T. Vachaspati, Physical Review D35, 1767, (1987).”
Sorry, but there is not much on the Net I can refer you to. My Vacuum Heart Theory really needs a new language (not even Maths can explain it adequately). I hope this doesn’t all sound too “double-entendre like”…
 
im just glad someone finnaly replied
didnt understand to much of your relpy Dogon but would love to get into some of that research your doing
