abstract

We calculate the constitutive equations of the stress-energy tensor and the currents of the free massless Dirac field at thermodynamic equilibrium with acceleration and rotation and a conserved axial charge by using the density operator approach. We carry out an expansion in thermal vorticity to the second order with finite axial chemical potential $\mu_A$. The obtained coefficients of the expansion are expressed as correlators of angular momenta and boost operators with the currents. We confirm previous observations that the axial chemical potential induces non-vanishing components of the stress-energy tensor at first order in thermal vorticity due to breaking of parity invariance of the density operator with $\mu_A \ne 0$. The appearance of these components might play an important role in chiral hydrodynamics.

    A local pressure for rotating massless fermions is proposed that satisfies both the Euler relation and the thermodynamic differential relations, resolving a known spin-hydrodynamics tension.
