This framework predicts several landmark effects that bridge the gap between thermodynamics, gravity, and quantum mechanics:

is a linear combination of both the old annihilation and creation operators: Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime: Quant...

In flat (Minkowski) spacetime, Poincaré invariance provides a unique vacuum state and a global definition of "particles". In curved spacetime, these "crutches" disappear: This framework predicts several landmark effects that bridge
