Relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics for particles of arbitrary mass

Abstract

Employing a kinetic framework, we calculate all transport coefficients for relativistic dissipative (second-order) hydrodynamics for arbitrary particle masses in the 14-moment approximation. Taking the non-relativistic limit, it is shown that the relativistic theory reduces to the Grad equations computed in the 'order-of-magnitude' approach.
