Analogue of Cosmological Particle Creation in an Ion Trap — •Christian Fey1, Tobias Schaetz2, and Ralf Schützhold1 — 1Universität Duisburg-Essen, Duisburg, Deutschland — 2Albert-Ludwigs-Universität, Freiburg, Deutschland
We study linear vibrations of ions confined by a trap with a time-dependent potential strength. This system behaves similarly to quantum fields in an expanding or contracting universe, where changes in the metric/curvature produce entangled particles of opposite momenta. For the ions we interpret the strength of the trapping potential as "curvature" and describe the creation of squeezed and entangled phonon-states.
