Hi all,
I have a question about the Unruh effect. I've read that a detector will only register the effect (i.e., the thermal bath) when the Rindler horizon is visible - in turn, a detector accelerating in a circle (changing direction but not speed) would not measure the thermal effect because no horizon is visible. Can anyone shed light on whether this is, in fact, correct?
