SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on the concept of dimensionless time in Rindler spacetime and its relationship with proper distance in Minkowski spacetime. Dimensionless time serves as a scaling mechanism for the time coordinate relative to the mass of a black hole, allowing for a clearer understanding of physical phenomena that remain consistent across different mass scales. Additionally, a dimensionless radial coordinate is introduced, which is derived from the standard radial coordinate divided by a constant related to the black hole's mass. This approach effectively isolates universal aspects of physics from mass-dependent variables.
