We evaluate the decay rate of the uniformly accelerated proton. We obtain an analytic expression for the inverse beta decay process caused by the acceleration. We evaluate the decay rate both from the inertial frame and from the accelerated frame where we should consider thermal radiation by the Unruh effect. We explicitly check that the decay rates obtained in both frames coincide with each other.
