Abstract

We search for non-trivial relativistic solutions of the hydrodynamic equations with quasi-inertial flows such as in the Bjorken-like models. The problem is analyzed in general and the known results are reproduced by a method proposed. A new class of 3D anisotropic analytic solutions with quasi-inertial property is found. An ellipsoidal generalization of the spherically symmetric Hubble flow with constant pressure is proposed as a particular case. The relativistic expansion of finite systems into vacuum is also described within this class. A region of applicability and possible utilization of the new solutions for processes of A+A collisions is discussed.
