Description
We show that there is a relationship between hydrodynamic effects in flat space and effects in a gravitational field. Moreover, this connection is valid at the quantum level in the case of quantum anomalies. In particular, we find in an accelerated and vortical medium a transport effect directly related to the gravitational chiral anomaly. The general theorem about this relationship is explicitly verified by comparing two independent calculations, quantum-field for the anomaly, and quantum-statistical for the transport coefficients, for the case of massless fields with spins 1/2 and 3/2.
