The causality of dissipative phenomena can not be treated in traditional theories of dissipations, Fourier laws and Navier-Stokes equations. This is the reason why the dissipative phenomena have not been studies well in relativistic…

We extended our formulation of causal dissipative hydrodynamics [T. Koide \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. \textbf{C75}, 034909 (2007)] to be applicable to the ultra-relativistic regime by considering the extensiveness of irreversible currents.…

Consistent formulations of relativistic viscous hydrodynamics involve short lived modes, leading to asymptotic rather than convergent gradient expansions. In this Letter we consider the Mueller-Israel-Stewart theory applied to a…
