Unruh effect is a landmark prediction of standard quantum field theory in which Fock vacuum state appears as a thermal state with respect to an uniformly accelerating observer. Given its dependence on trans-Planckian modes, Unruh effect is…
We investigate how a uniformly rotating frame is defined as the rest frame of an observer rotating with constant angular velocity $\Omega$ around the $z$ axis of an inertial frame. Assuming that this frame is a Lorentz one, we second…

We study the Landauer's principle of an Unruh-DeWitt detector linearly coupled to Dirac field in $1 + 1$ dimensional cavity. When the initial state of the field is vacuum, we obtain the heat transfer and von Neumann entropy change…
