Abstract
The extended space-time manifold in a uniformly accelerating reference frame is considered both for positive and negative accelerations. An analogy between the light barrier and a black hole event horizon in the theory of relativity is drawn. It is shown that bradyon-tachyon-antibradyon transformations are possible in the proper reference frame by a constant acceleration, i.e. for the light barrier penetration.
