read the original abstract
These pedagogical notes are dedicated to a derivation of the Unruh effect. There is special emphasis on the transparency of the arguments and the exhibition of detailed calculations. We assume the reader has a basic knowledge of quantum mechanics and relativity. The notes can hopefully be used in a self-contained way by advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students.

Four inequivalent paths to Thermality in Minkowski spacetime
Null-shifted Rindler wedges yield selective non-Gibbsian thermality in one chiral sector via Bogoliubov transformations, with the global Minkowski state remaining pure.
