On the Angular Momentum and Free Energy of Rotating Gluon Plasma
We study the free energy and the angular momentum of rotating hot gluon matter using first-principle numerical simulations of the $$SU(3)$$ lattice Yang–Mills theory. We calculate the specific moment of inertia and the specific deformation of the gluon matter as, respectively, the leading and next-to-leading terms in a series in angular velocity over a broad range of temperatures and various spatial boundary conditions. We show that the specific deformation, similarly to the moment of inertia, takes negative values in a phenomenologically interesting region of temperatures above the phase transition and turns positive at higher temperatures.
