Is the Rindler horizon energy nonvanishing ?

Abstract

A nonvanishing value for the Rindler horizon energy is proposed, by an analogy with the "near horizon" Schwarzschild metric. We show that the Rindler horizon energy is given by the same formula $E=\alpha /2$ obtained by Padmanabhan for the Schwarzschild spacetime, where $\alpha$ is the gravitational radius.
