THE MILNE SPACETIME AND THE HADRONIC RINDLER HORIZON

A direct relation between the time-dependent Milne geometry and the Rindler spacetime is shown. Milne's metric corresponds to the region beyond Rindler's event horizon (in the wedge t ≻ |x|). We point out that inside a Schwarzschild black hole and near its horizon, the metric may be Milne's flat metric. It was found that the shear tensor associated to a congruence of fluid particles of the RHIC expanding fireball has the same structure as that corresponding to the anisotropic fluid from the black hole interior, even though the latter geometry is curved.
