TLDR
In this article, it was shown that observers whose observation of particle modes is limited by a horizon see a "hot" thermal vacuum, which unifies and generalizes the results of Fulling, Gibbons, Hawking and Unruh.About:

Eternal black holes in anti-de Sitter
Juan Maldacena,Juan Maldacena +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a dual non-perturbative description for maximally extended Schwarzschild anti-de-Sitter spacetimes is proposed, which involves two copies of the conformal field theory associated to the AdS spacetime and an initial entangled state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cool horizons for entangled black holes
Juan Maldacena,Leonard Susskind +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the EPR pair can be interpreted as maximally entangled states of two black holes, and they suggest that similar bridges might be present for more general entangled states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generalized gravitational entropy
Aitor Lewkowycz,Juan Maldacena +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the problem of computing the trace of a density matrix in the full quantum gravity theory, in the classical approximation, and showed that the entropy of this density matrix is given by the area of a minimal surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamical aspects of gravity: new insights
TL;DR: The fact that one can associate thermodynamic properties with horizons brings together principles of quantum theory, gravitation and thermodynamics and possibly offers a window to the nature of quantum geometry as mentioned in this paper.

Theorems on the uniqueness and thermal properties of stationary, nonsingular, quasifree states on spacetimes with a bifurcate killing horizon
Bernard S. Kay,Robert M. Wald +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the properties of quasifree states of a linear, scalar quantum field in globally hyperbolic spacetimes possessing a one-parameter group of isometries with a bifurcate Killing horizon.

Particle Creation by Black Holes
TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that quantum mechanical effects cause black holes to create and emit particles as if they were hot bodies with temperature, which leads to a slow decrease in the mass of the black hole and to its eventual disappearance.

Interacting relativistic boson fields in the de Sitter universe with two space-time dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the positive temperature Gibbs state of a scalar boson field with a relativistic local self-interaction in two space-time dimensional Minkowski universe as constructed in [1] is not relativistically invariant.
