Simulating superluminal physics with superconducting circuit technology
Carlos Sabín, Borja Peropadre, Lucas Lamata, E. Solano · Physical Review A · 2017
We provide tools for the quantum simulation of superluminal motion with superconducting circuits. We show that it is possible to simulate the motion of a superconducting qubit at constant velocities that exceed the speed of light in the electromagnetic medium and the subsequent emission of Ginzburg radiation. We also consider possible setups for simulating the superluminal motion of a mirror, finding a link with the super-radiant phase transition of the Dicke model.
