Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of a general second-order stochastic system is investigated. We prove that at steady state, under inversion of velocities, the condition of time-reversibility over the phase space is equivalent to the…

We investigate the implications of the general frame approach for conformal Bjorken flow beyond the earlier studies. We show that the power series solution at late times is not unique and is accompanied by an exact solution of the form…

We propose a new theory of second-order viscous relativistic hydrodynamics which does not impose any frame conditions on the choice of the hydrodynamic variables. It differs from Mueller-Israel-Stewart theory by including additional…

Anisotropic hydrodynamics is a non-perturbative reorganization of relativistic hydrodynamics that takes into account the large momentum-space anisotropies generated in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. As a result, it allows one to…

We consider the particle creation scenario in the dynamical Chern-Simons modified gravity in the presence of perfect fluid equation of state $p=(\gamma-1)\rho$. By assuming various modified entropies (Bekenstein, logarithmic, power law…

I argue that if a special science satisfies certain key assumptions that are familiar from physicalist accounts of the special sciences and from physics, then its causal regularities have an associated notion of entropy, and that this…

We investigate the causality and stability of the relativistic theory of magnetohydrodynamics derived in Phys. Rev. D 109, 096021 (2024) to describe a locally neutral two-component plasma of massless particles. We show that this formalism…

The goal of this work is apply field theory methods to discuss turbulence in relativistic real fluids. We shalltake as representtive model an Israel-Stewart framework, where the conservation laws for the energy-momentum tensor are…

We present a relativistic formalism inspired on the Minkowski four-vectors that also includes conservation laws such as the first law of thermodynamics. It remains close to the relativistic four-vector formalism developed for a single…

A formalism for anisotropic fluid dynamics is proposed. It is designed to describe boost-invariant systems with anisotropic pressure. Such systems are expected to be produced at the early stages of relativistic heavy-ion collisions, when…

We set up a general framework for systematically building and classifying, in the linear regime, causal and stable dissipative hydrodynamic theories that, alongside with the usual hydrodynamic modes, also allow for an arbitrary number of…

The causal-stable Muller-Israel-Stewart (MIS) theory is known to have a finite number of out of equilibrium derivative order corrections but requires treating the viscosity tensor as a separate degree of freedom with its own equations of…

We study transport properties of a parity-odd, non-relativistic charged fluid in presence of background electric and magnetic fields. To obtain stress tensor and charged current for the non-relativistic system we start with the most generic…

In this work, a connection has been indicated between the different existing formulations of relativistic hydrodynamic theories, which, in order to be causal and stable, (i) either requires `non-fluid' variables apart from velocity and…

Extended theories are widely used in the literature to describe the relativistic fluid. The motivation for this is mostly due to the causality issues allegedly present in the first order theories. However, the decay of fluctuations in the…
