For a massive Maxwell-Boltzmann gas in the relaxation-time approximation, finite mass removes the propagating sound mode, leaving purely imaginary modes, while shear and diffusion modes stay close to the massless results.

abstract
Starting from the Maxwell-Juettner equilibrium distribution, we develop a relativistic lattice Boltzmann (LB) algorithm capable of handling ultrarelativistic systems with flat, but expanding, spacetimes. The algorithm is validated through simulations of quark-gluon plasma, yielding excellent agreement with hydrodynamic simulations. The present scheme opens the possibility of transferring the recognized computational advantages of lattice kinetic theory to the context of both weakly and ultra-relativistic systems.
