Abstract
We derive the constitutive relations of first order charged hydrodynamics for theories with Lifshitz scaling and broken parity in and spacetime dimensions. In addition to the anomalous (in ) or Hall (in ) transport of relativistic hydrodynamics, there is an additional non-dissipative transport allowed by the absence of boost invariance. We analyze the non-relativistic limit and use a phenomenological model of a strange metal to argue that these effects can be measured in principle by using electromagnetic fields with non-zero gradients.
