A Killing horizon is a null hypersurface defined by the vanishing of the norm of a Killing vector field (both are named after Wilhelm Killing). (Notice that in the case of flat space time Killing vectors are null all over the space time, so they do not define a hypersurface and we have no Killing horizon.) Associated to a Killing horizon is a geometrical quantity known as surface gravity, . If the surface gravity vanishes, then the Killing horizon is said to be degenerate. == Black hole Killing horizons == Exact black hole metrics such as the Kerr–Newman metric contain Killing horizons which coincide with their event horizons. It should be emphasized, however, that these two notions of horizon are independent. For this spacetime, the Killing horizon is located at . In the usual coordinates, outside the Killing horizon, the Killing vector field is timelike, whilst inside it is spacelike. The temperature of Hawking radiation is related to the surface gravity by with the Boltzmann constante. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Killing horizon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
