abstract

We consider an analogue de Sitter cosmos in an expanding quasi-two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate with dominant dipole-dipole interactions between the atoms or molecules in the ultracold gas. It is demonstrated that a hallmark signature of inflationary cosmology, the scale invariance of the power spectrum of inflaton field correlations, experiences strong modifications when, at the initial stage of expansion, the excitation spectrum displays a roton minimum. Dipolar quantum gases thus furnish a viable laboratory tool to experimentally investigate, with well-defined and controllable initial conditions, whether primordial oscillation spectra deviating from Lorentz invariance at trans-Planckian momenta violate standard predictions of inflationary cosmology.

Laboratory rivers extremize friction and are cosmological analogues

physics.geo-ph · 2026-05-14 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

River cross-sectional profiles satisfy the Friedmann equation for an Anti-de Sitter universe; the associated action extremizes friction and dissipation, and the extremum is a maximum by second variation analysis.
