The thermal partition functions of photons in any covariant gauge and gravitons in the harmonic gauge, propagating in a Rindler wedge, are computed using a local zeta-function approach. The relation with the surface terms previously obtained by D. Kabat is studied. The results are discussed in relation to the quantum corrections to the black hole entropy.

Polyakov-loop potential of accelerated gluonic matter and subtlety in thermodynamics
Real acceleration strengthens deconfining properties of gluonic matter per the one-loop Polyakov-loop potential minimized in the optical metric, while imaginary acceleration yields a confined phase.
