Description

In this presentation we will explore, with the help of analytical and numerical tools, the dynamics of a quantum free field enclosed in a cavity with moving boundaries. The nontrivial dynamics of the mirrors yields to mode-mixing and particle production. We will then discuss how to simulate the Hawking effect and some intriguing phenomena associated with the dynamical Casimir effect.
