Enhanced Gravity Analogues
Analogue-gravity experiments recreate black hole–like and horizon-like behavior within optical, fluid, or quantum systems. HDIF extends this framework by predicting that such systems should also exhibit quantized curvature steps and memory-driven oscillations. Enhanced Gravity Analogues offer a scalable, laboratory-accessible environment for reproducing the predicted dynamics of horizon interfaces.
​
Why It Matters:
These analogues function as “tabletop universes,” allowing researchers to test HDIF’s predictions without requiring astronomical observations or extreme gravitational conditions.
​
​
Methods
Analogue-gravity systems use optical refractive gradients, superfluid flows, or membrane oscillators to reconstruct horizon-like behavior in the laboratory. By engineering boundary dynamics that mimic HDIF’s interface equations, we examine how memory accumulation affects analogue horizons. These setups allow tunable control over curvature-like parameters such as flow velocity, boundary motion, or refractive index.
