These analog models, typically based on condensed matter physics, can be used to help us understand general relativity (Einstein's gravity); conversely, abstract techniques developed in general relativity can sometimes be used to help us understand certain aspects of condensed matter physics. This book contains 13 chapters — written by experts in general relativity, particle physics, and condensed matter physics — that explore various aspects of this two-way traffic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents: Introduction and Survey (M Visser); Acoustic Black Holes in Dilute Bose-Einstein Condensates (L Garay); Slow Light (U Leonhardt); Black Hole and Baby Universe in a Thin Film of 3He-A (T Jacobson \u0026amp; T Koike); Measurability of Dumb Hole Radiation?
