abstract
In this review we describe statistical mechanics of quantum systems in the presence of a Killing horizon and compare statistical-mechanical and one-loop contributions to black hole entropy. Studying these questions was motivated by attempts to explain the entropy of black holes as a statistical-mechanical entropy of quantum fields propagating near the black hole horizon. We provide an introduction to this field of research and review its results. In particular, we discuss the relation between the statistical-mechanical entropy of quantum fields and the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy in the standard scheme with renormalization of gravitational coupling constants and in the theories of induced gravity.

Polyakov-loop potential of accelerated gluonic matter and subtlety in thermodynamics
Real acceleration strengthens deconfining properties of gluonic matter per the one-loop Polyakov-loop potential minimized in the optical metric, while imaginary acceleration yields a confined phase.
