The vacuum energy density of free scalar quantum field Φ in a Rindler distributional space-time with distributional Levi-Cività connection is considered. It has been widely believed that, except in very extreme situations, the influence of acceleration on quantum fields should amount to just small, sub-dominant contributions. Here we argue that this belief is wrong by showing that in a Rindler distributional background spacetime with distributional Levi-Cività connection the vacuum energy of free quantum fields is forced, by the very same background distributional space-time such a Rindler distributional background space-time, to become dominant over any classical energy density component. This semiclassical gravity effect finds its roots in the singular behavior of quantum fields on a Rindler distributional space-times with distributional Levi-Cività connection. In particular we obtain that the vacuum fluctuations 2 have a singular behavior at a Rindler horizon R 0 : 2 4 , as c 2 /a, a . Therefore sufficiently strongly accelerated observer burns up near the Rindler horizon. Thus Polchinski's account doesn't violate of the Einstein equivalence principle.
On the basis of an exact solution for the field of a charge in a uniformly accelerated noninertial frame of reference (NFR) and formulated "Equivalent Situation Postulate" the nonlinear electrostatic theory of bound charges has been constructed. Proposed method is outside of the flat space-time, however the curvature is not directly connected with the Einstein gravitational theory. The method proposed eliminates divergence of the proper energy and makes classical electrodynamics consistent at any sufficiently small distances.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
