The Unruh Effect

The video explores the concept of acceleration and its impact on event horizons, focusing on the Unruh effect. It explains how accelerating observers perceive a warm bath of particles due to the distortion of the quantum vacuum. The video also covers spacetime diagrams, world lines, and the Rindler Horizon, highlighting the observer-dependent nature of particles. The Unruh effect is compared to Hawking radiation, emphasizing the differences in perception between accelerating and inertial observers.
