Description
Quark-gluon plasma created in heavy-ion collision experiments is affected by relativistic rotation and strong acceleration, which influence its properties. In this report, we present a lattice study of the confinement-deconfinement phase transition in rotating and accelerating gluodynamics. We find that under the influence of these extreme conditions, the finite-temperature confinement-deconfinement phase transition becomes a spatial crossover. This means that spatially separated confinement and deconfinement phases can coexist within certain ranges of thermodynamic parameters. We explore the properties of this transition, compare the results with predictions of the Tolman-Ehrenfest law, and discuss the origin of the observed discrepancy.
