Discussions of the Unruh effect are often confused by the unrealistic nature of the trajectory (acceleration ad infinitum) and by the invocation of accelerated observers. We present a formalism that allows the calculation of radiation emission from accelerated atoms and mirrors in time-dependent perturbation theory moving along asymptotically inertial trajectories. The description is unambiguously set in terms pertaining to the laboratory frame. In the limit of constant acceleration of infinite duration one recovers Unruh's result. |
