The realization of the first quantum bubbles, both in microgravity using radiofrequency dressing (Nature 606, 281-286 (2022)) and on the ground with quantum mixtures (PRL 129, 243402 (2022)), has opened the way to studying the evolution of condensed atoms in non-trivial geometries. Among these, collective excitation modes are of particular interest, as they are readily accessible experimentally. It has been shown that, during the transition from a filled to a hollow geometry, the behavior of excitation modes is non-monotonic. In this work, we investigate the behavior of collective excitations in quantum bubbles and search for potential thermodynamic signatures of the hollowing transition.
