The state or process of rotating together with another object at the same rate; synchronized rotation.
From co- (together) + rotation (Latin rotatio). Became standard in physics and astronomy terminology in the 20th century.
Corotation is why we only ever see one side of the moon—Earth and moon are in perfect corotation, locked together by gravity in a cosmic waltz that's lasted billions of years!
