Abstract

We identify, in spacetimes satisfying the null convergence condition, a certain natural class of null hypersurfaces that admit null sections with constant surface gravity. Our work is meant to offer complementary results to previous work on null hypersurfaces of zero expansion arising from the study of Cauchy and black hole horizons in general relativity.
