Bose Polarons as Relativistic Unruh-DeWitt Detectors: Entanglement Harvesting from Bose-Einstein Condensates
Author(s): T. Rick Perche, Francesco Gozzini, and Markus K. Oberthaler
An impurity in a Bose-Einstein condensate with time-tunable coupling realizes an Unruh-DeWitt detector of the condensate’s effective relativistic phonon field. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 137, 170401] Published Tue Oct 20, 2026
