Reply to Comment on: Hawking radiation from ultrashort laser pulse filaments

TL;DR

This paper defends the interpretation that recent measurements of analogue Hawking radiation from ultrashort laser pulse filaments are valid, addressing concerns raised and reaffirming the Hawking emission origin.

Contribution

It provides a rebuttal to critiques of recent experimental results, clarifying the interpretation of Hawking radiation in laser filament experiments.

Findings

Supports the Hawking emission interpretation of observed radiation

Addresses and counters concerns raised in the comment

Reaffirms the validity of recent measurements

Abstract

A comment by R. Schutzhold et al. raises possible concerns and questions regarding recent measurements of analogue Hawking radiation. We briefly reply to the opinions expressed in the comment and sustain that the origin of the radiation may be understood in terms of Hawking emission.
