Abstract

Motivated by the Hamilton-Jacobi method of Angheben et al, we investigate the Hawking tunneling radiation from a uniformly accelerating rectilinear black hole for which the horizons and entropy are functions of θ. After several coordinate transformations, we conclude that when the self-gravitational interaction and energy conservation are taken into account, the actual radiation spectrum deviates from the thermal one and the tunneling rate is the function of θ though it is still related to the change of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy.
