In advanced coordinates, is a Killing vector field and . The normal covector to is ; raising it gives , which equals on the horizon. Thus is a null hypersurface normal to , and hence a Killing horizon.
The surface gravity is defined by on this horizon, equivalently . Here , so the radial component gives . Because ,
It is positive for all finite real and ; the stationary Killing vector field retains its asymptotic normalization.
