Description

We theoretically investigate the acoustic analogs of high-angular-momentum rotating black holes in exciton-polariton condensates. Performing numerical simulations of a long-lived ring-shaped condensate configuration with an acoustic horizon and ergoregion for high-angular-momentum states, we observed a quasistable state near critical angular momentum where the acoustic black hole horizon disappears. Our findings offer an insight into the quantum nature of the instability of naked singularity.
