Entropy of a Rindler Observer

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2015-06-16 v1 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

We compute the entropy of a Rindler particle-detector (observer) in the presence of a quantum field in the Minkowski vacuum state; due to the Unruh effect, the observer is immersed in a thermal bath at a temperature proportional to its proper acceleration.
