We propose an implementation of a twin paradox scenario in superconducting circuits, with velocities as large as a few percent of the speed of light. Ultrafast modulation of the boundary conditions for the electromagnetic field in a microwave cavity simulates a clock moving at relativistic speeds. Since our cavity has a finite length, the setup allows us to investigate the role of clock size as well as interesting quantum effects on time dilation. In particular, our theoretical results show that the time dilation increases for larger cavity lengths and is shifted due to quantum particle creation.

  1. Robustness of analogue Hawking radiation in cavities with moving boundaries

    quant-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Thermal Hawking-like radiation in moving-mirror cavities is robust only for selected expanding configurations and low frequencies; all other configurations tested show non-thermal spectra.
