W. G. Unruh is a prominent theoretical physicist known for his work in several areas of physics, including general relativity, quantum field theory, and cosmology. One of his most significant contributions is the formulation of what is now known as the Unruh effect. This phenomenon predicts that an observer accelerating through a vacuum will observe thermal radiation (akin to blackbody radiation), even though an inertial observer in that same vacuum would perceive it as empty space.
