We study the phenomenon of Unruh effect in a massless scalar field theory quantized on the light-front in the general light-front frame. We determine the uniformly accelerating coordinates in such a frame and through a direct transformation show that the propagator of the theory has a thermal character in the uniformly accelerating coordinate system with a temperature given by Tolman’s law. We ...
متن کاملUnruh Effect for General Trajectories
We consider two-level detectors coupled to a scalar field and moving on arbitrary trajec-tories in Minkowski space-time. We first derive a generic expression for the response function using a (novel) regularization procedure based on the Feynmann prescription that is explicitly causal, and we compare it to other expressions used in the literature. We then use this expression to study, analytica...
متن کاملFrame-Independence of Exclusive Amplitudes in the Light-Front Quantization
While the particle-number-conserving convolution formalism established in the Drell-Yan-West reference frame is frequently used to compute exclusive amplitudes in the light-front quantization, this formalism is limited to only those frames where the light-front helicities are not changed and the good (plus) component of the current remains unmixed. For an explicit demonstration of such criteria...
متن کاملFrame independence of exclusive amplitudes in light-front quantization
While the particle-number-conserving convolution formalism established in the Drell-Yan-West reference frame is frequently used to compute exclusive amplitudes in the light-front quantization, this formalism is limited to only those frames where the light-front helicities are not changed and the good ~plus! component of the current remains unmixed. For an explicit demonstration of such criteria...
متن کاملThe Unruh effect revisited
We give a complete and rigorous proof of the Unruh effect, in the following form. We show that the state of a two-level system, uniformly accelerated with proper acceleration a, and coupled to a scalar bose field initially in the Minkowski vacuum state will converge, asymptotically in the detector’s proper time, to the Gibbs state at inverse temperature β = 2π a . The result also holds if the f...
