Abstract
We show the possibility to detect Hawking radiation by geometric phase with Dirac particles. If the initial state of the particle is near the ground state, the geometric phase experiences a sudden change with respect to Hawking temperature, which could be employed to detect Hawking radiation. The physical mechanism behind our idea is the population redistribution on the excited state of the particle induced by the event horizon.
