ED SIMME Doctoral School proposes the following thesis subject:

Title of the thesis : ANALOGUE GRAVITY IN INTERFACIAL HYDRODYNAMICS

This project would be under the supervision of : Germain Rousseaux, D2-FTC department of PPRIME Institute at Universite de Poitiers.

Co-supervisor(s) : /

Starting date: 01/10/2022

Thesis presentation:
We study a circular jump like the time reverse of a black hole in an analogue gravity experiment. Surface waves are diffused by the boundary of the jump which models the event horizon in Astrophysics. The Planck scale is modeled by a combination of the water depth and the capillary length to simulate a minimum-scale dispersive regime in quantum gravity.
