Abstract
We analyze the response of a detector with a uniform acceleration in Minkowski spacetime using the first order perturbation theory. The monopole detector is coupled to a massless complex scalar field in such a way that it is sensitive to the Lorentz violation due to the noncommutativity of spacetime present in the deformation. The response function deviates from the thermal distribution of Unruh temperature at the order of and vanishes exponentially as the proper time of the detector exceeds a certain critical time, a logarithmic function of . This suggests that the Unruh temperature becomes not only fuzzy but also eventually decreases to zero in this model.
