Relativistic fluid dynamics with spin

Chapter 1 Relativistic Fluid Dynamics

Fluid Dynamics for Relativistic Nuclear Collisions

I give an introduction to the basic concepts of fluid dynamics as applied to the dynamical description of relativistic nuclear collisions.

Relativistic Dynamics of Spin in Strong External Fields *

The dynamics of relativistic spinning particles in strong external electromagnetic or gravitational fields is discussed. Spin-orbit coupling is shown to affect such relativistic phenomena as time-dilation and perihelion shift. Possible applications include muon decay in a magnetic field and the dynamics of neutron stars in binary systems. ∗Lecture presented at the 4th Hellenic School on Element...

Numerical tests of causal relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics

We present numerical methods to solve the Israel– Stewart (IS) equations of causal relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics with bulk and shear viscosities. We then test these methods studying the Riemann problem in (1+ 1)and (2+ 1)-dimensional geometry. The numerical schemes investigated here are applicable to realistic (3 + 1)-dimensional modeling of a relativistic dissipative fluid. PACS 24.1...
