We study a two-dimensional dilaton gravity model related by a conformal transformation of the metric to the Callan-Giddings-Harvey-Strominger model. We find that most of the features and problems of the latter can be simply understood in terms of the class

INFNCA-TH9516May 1995ON THE CONFORMAL EQUIV ALENCE BETWEEN 2D BLACK HOLES AND RINDLER SPACETIME Mariano Cadoni and Salvatore Mignemi Dipartimento di Scienze Fisiche,Universit`a di Cagliari,Via Ospedale 72,I-09100Cagliari,Italy.and INFN,Sezione di Cagliari.ABSTRACT We study a two-dimensional dilaton gravity model related by a conformal transformation of the metric to the Callan-Giddings-Harvey-Strominger model.We find that most of the features and problems of the latter can be simply understood in terms of the classical and

semiclassical dynamics of accelerated observers in two-dimensional Minkowski space.PACS:04.70.Dy,11.25.-W,97.60.Lf
