      Formation of crystalline chiral condensate in a rotating quark matter

      It is believed at intermediate densities, a new form of chiral condensate with crystalline structure appears as the favored ground state of Quantum Chromodynamic (QCD). This phase of quark matter, described by an inhomogeneous order parameter, appears as the result of quark and quark-hole pairing near the Fermi surface. The heavy-ion collisions provide an opportunity to investigate the thermodynamic properties of QCD matter. The primary aim of these experiments is to study the phase portrait of QCD and locate the corresponding critical point. The matter produced at these collisions carries a large angular momentum. Thus it is necessary to include the effect of rotation on the phase boundaries and the critical point. In this talk, after providing general ideas on the inhomogeneous phase of quark matter, I will present some of our findings on the influence of rotation on the formation of the crystalline phase of quark matter.
