In this talk, we discuss the influence of acceleration on quantum states. We start by studying the effects of acceleration on fermionic Gaussian states of localized modes of a Dirac field. Thereby we formulate the action of the transformation to an accelerated frame as a fermionic quantum channel and discuss the entanglement of the vacuum, as well as the entanglement in Bell states. After that, we discuss collective dynamics of accelerated atoms interacting with a massless scalar field via an Unruh-deWitt type interaction. Therefore, we derive the general Hamiltonian describing such a system and employ a Markovian master equation. In particular, we report the
emergence of superradiance and entanglement between two-level atoms. Finally, we briefly outline a proposal for an experimental setup for a quantum simulation of this system using Bose-Einstein condensates.
