Abstract
Landau theory used for studying hot rotating nuclei usually uses zero tempe rature Strutinsky smoothed total energy for the temperature dependent shell corrections. This is replaced in this work by the temperature dependent St rutinsky smoothed free energy. Our results show that this replacement has o nly marginal effect for temperatures greater than 1 MeV but plays significa nt role at lower temperatures.
