A Primer for Black Hole Quantum Physicsby R. Brout, S. Massar, R. Parentani, P. Spindel - arXiv
The mechanisms which give rise to Hawking radiation are revealed by analyzing pair production. Three problems are considered: pair production in an external electric field, thermalization of a uniformly accelerated detector and accelerated mirrors.
