That should be the case. Ford, can't remember his first name, I think says
no. I got a bit of attention with a paper last decade I wrote where I
suggested how to measure this. If you propel a body at these extreme
accelerations and then catch it the body should have a higher temperature.

of the surface of the material, which has a sort of quantum atmosphere,
interacting with the vacuum in an asymmetric fashion.
