Abstract
The effect of the spatial anisotropy in the distribution of components of particle momenta of the rotating Ar-3 cluster is studied at a give n total energy and different values of the total angular momentum. The Schwarzschild formula applied to describe this distribution gives thr ee parameters which can serve as a measure of the internal temperature s of the cluster. A new definition of the energy of the overall non-ri gid rotation based on the Schwarzschild distribution is proposed.
