Scientific paper

The Hawking process---quantum decay of a black hole via emission of thermal radiation---is theoretically compelling, yet it raises deep puzzles about quantum gravity and is observationally remote. Condensed matter analogs of black holes have already yielded theoretical insights into one of the puzzles, and may one day allow us to experimentally study Hawking radiation analogs in the laboratory. Conversely, the analogy may prove fruitful on the condensed matter side. The prospects and problems with constructing such analogs will be discussed.
