Abstract
In this work a non-abelian gauge theory is reformulated in a rotating frame. With this new formalism, the influence of the background rotation on the color deconfinement transition for a pure SU(2) gluon system has been studied. The KvBLL caloron, which is a color neutral and topologically nontrivial solution of Yang-Mills equation at finite temperature, is reexamined under rotation and adopted as the confined vacuum of such a system. With rotation-modified solutions of the caloron's constituent solitons, i.e. dyons, the non-perturbative part of effective potential of the rotating system has been obtained. Combining with the perturbative potential by Gaussian fluctuations, the critical temperature of confinement-deconfinement phase transition is investigated. It is found that neither the rotational semi-classical potential nor Gaussian fluctuations can confine color charges more tightly when the rotation becomes faster. While only a stronger coupling constant is able to make the critical temperature increase with angular velocity, as what indicated in lattice simulations. And it is found a non-monotonic dependence of the critical temperature on the angular velocity is established because of the competition between these two contrary contributions.
