Use the exterior-normalized Killing vector field from the previous part. In Ingoing BTZ coordinates, its only nonzero acceleration component on is
The defining equation for surface gravity, , therefore gives the positive future-branch value
This value uses exactly the prescribed Killing vector field normalization. A constant rescaling of the Killing vector field rescales its surface gravity.
