Abstract
Horizons can occur in a wide range of physical situations, many of which we can construct in the lab. Most gravity simulators observe features, like super-radiance, that are analysed as a continuum effect in gravity, whereas many interesting "beyond GR" features theorise about the impact of quantised aspects of the black hole.   In this talk, I will describe recent experimental work on a liquid helium giant vortex that naturally has quantisation, and how we hope to explore "black hole" phenomena in a broader context.   Based on [arXiv:2308.10773 [gr-qc]] with: Patrik Svancara, Pietro Smaniotto, Leonardo Solidoro, James MacDonald, Sam Patrick, Carlo Barenghi and Silke Weinfurtner
