This book is part of a large and growing body of work on the
observation of analogue gravity effects, such as Hawking radiation,
in laboratory systems. The book is highly didactic, skillfully
navigating between concepts ranging from quantum field theory on
curved space-times, nonlinear fibre optics and the theoretical and
experimental foundations in the physics of optical analogues to the
Event Horizon. It presents a comprehensive field-theoretical
framework for these systems, including the kinematics governing the
fields. This allows an analytical calculation of the all-important
conversion of vacuum fluctuations into Hawking radiation. Based on
this, emission spectra are computed, providing unique insights into
the emissions from a highly dispersive system. In an experimental
part, the book develops a clear and systematic way to
experimentally approach the problem and demonstrates the
construction of an experimental setup and measurements of
unprecedented sensitivity in the search for stimulation of the
Hawking effect.
