We investigate whether black holes can be defined without using event horizons. In particular we focus on the thermodynamic properties of event horizons and the alternative, locally defined horizons. We discuss the assumptions and limitations of the proofs of the zeroth, first and second laws of black hole mechanics for both event horizons and trapping horizons. This leads to the possibility that black holes may be more usefully defined in terms of trapping horizons. We also show how Hawking radiation can also be seen to arise from trapping horizons and discuss which horizon area should be associated with the gravitational entropy.

Doppler shifted Hawking radiation from acoustic black holes in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions
Even when the central flow is boost invariant, large-rapidity deviations can slow the acoustic horizon's recession, giving finite redshift Hawking radiation that may affect momentum distributions.

Dynamical black holes and accretion-induced backreaction
For accreting Reissner-Nordstrom black holes, the momentum flux from infalling matter splits an extremal horizon into two, while energy density displaces the extremal horizon's radius.
