Apparently there is, but it is somewhat complicated since there is ambiguity of what constitutes a circularly accelerated coordinate system.
Apparently there is, but it is somewhat complicated since there is ambiguity of what constitutes a circularly accelerated coordinate system. Temperature gives as
T a 2 3 c k B .
In the linear acceleration formula 2 3 is replaced by 2π.
