Deskripsi
The flow of light in nonlinear media can be considered as superfluid flow and described with quantum hydrodynamics. Here the authors demonstrate superfluid flow, optical rarefaction (retracting piston) and shock (pushing piston) wave pairs and characterize associated phase transitions by using fiber-based platform.
