We present a new solution of relativistic hydrodynamics in 1+3 dimensions which depends on both the transverse coordinate and rapidity. At early times the flow expands dominantly longitudinally in a non-boost-invariant manner, and at late…

A large variety of explosions result in mildly or ultra relativistic shock breakouts. Here we calculate the luminosity and spectrum that these breakouts produce. In order to do so we improve an analytic description of relativistic radiation…

A sufficiently powerful astrophysical source with power law luminosity in time will give rise to a self-similar relativistic blast wave with a reverse shock traveling into the ejecta and a forward shock moving into the surrounding medium.…
