  The possibility of chiral symmetry restoration by acceleration is considered.
The Thermalization Theorem formalism and the large $N$ limit (with $N$ being
the number of pions) are employed to solve the lowest-order approximation to
QCD at low energies in Rindler spacetime. It is shown that chiral symmetry is
restored for accelerations higher than the critical value $a_c=4\pi f_\pi$,
with $f_\pi$ being the pion decay constant. The results are completely
analogous to those obtained in the inertial, finite-temperature case, evincing
the ontic character of the Unruh effect.
