We discuss the similarities of this experiment to the usual Unruh effect for quantum fields and uniformly accelerated detectors. We demonstrate a new Unruh effect for detectors that respond to anti-normally ordered moments using the ion's first blue sideband transition.16 pages, 3 figures, .pdfQuantum PhysicsThe Unruh effect in an Ion Trap: An Analogytext
