Description
We have investigated the accelarating hot gluonic matter near the critical temperature of the deconfinement phase transition within the framework of lattice quantum field theory (QFT). We used the Tolman-Ehrenfest relation between the temperature gradient and the gravitational field to introduce acceleration into the lattice QFT formalism. We considered several lattice sizes along imaginary time and took the infinite-volume limit to make our results convincing. We have shown that even the weakest acceleration to ~4 MeV is sufficient to change the first-order deconfinment phase transition occurring in pure gluodynamics to a soft crossover for the accelerated medium.
