Is the Rindler horizon energy nonvanishing ?

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v2 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

A nonvanishing value for the Rindler horizon energy is proposed, by an analogy with the "near horizon" Schwarzschild metric. We show that the Rindler horizon energy is given by the same formula E=α/2E = \alpha/2 obtained by Padmanabhan for the Schwarzschild spacetime, where α\alpha is the gravitational radius.
