Research Abstract |
Feasibility study on the observation of Hawking-Unruh(HU) radiations on earth was performed in the Rydberg-atom single-photon detection system in a cooled microwave resonant cavity. Specifically a cryostat and a cavity, together with a Rydberg-atom single-photon detection system, were constructed in which related dynamical Casimir effect can be also investigated. The HU radiations resulting from Stark acceleration of atoms with the above system were studied theoretically and experimentally.
