Dynamical surface gravity
arXiv:0711.1445 · doi:10.1088/0264-9381/25/8/085010
Abstract
We discuss how the surface gravity can be classically defined for dynamical black holes. In particular we focus on defining the surface gravity for locally defined horizons and compare a number definitions proposed in the literature. We illustrate the differences between the various proposals in the case of an arbitrary dynamical, spherically symmetric black hole spacetime. We also discuss how the trapping horizon formalism of Hayward can be related to other constructions.
