Key Equations
$$S = \int d^4x \sqrt{-g} \left[-\frac{1}{2}g^{\mu\nu}\partial_\mu\phi\partial_\nu\phi - \frac{1}{2}m^2\phi^2 - \xi R\phi^2\right]$$
$$\boxed{T_{\text{Unruh}} = \frac{a}{2\pi k_B}}$$
$$r_s = 2GM = \frac{2GM}{c^2} \approx 3 \text{ km} \times \left(\frac{M}{M_\odot}\right)$$
$$\boxed{S_{BH} = \frac{k_B A}{4\ell_P^2} = \frac{k_B c^3 A}{4G\hbar}}$$
Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
