abstract
We discuss a puzzle in relativistic spin hydrodynamics; in the previous formulation the spin source from the antisymmetric part of the canonical energy-momentum tensor (EMT) is crucial. The Belinfante improved EMT is pseudo-gauge transformed from the canonical EMT and is usually a physically sensible choice especially when gauge fields are coupled as in magnetohydrodynamics, but the Belinfante EMT has no antisymmetric part. We find that pseudo-transformed entropy currents are physically inequivalent in nonequilibrium situations. We also identify a current induced by the spin vorticity read from the Belinfante symmetric EMT.

Exact calculations in a boost-invariant free Dirac fermion fluid show spin polarization arises only from finite spin potential, with shear-induced polarization and spin Hall effect absent.
Spin dynamics in dissipative hydrodynamics enhance thermal dilepton yields relative to standard viscous hydrodynamics in Bjorken flow, with the enhancement depending on spin transport coefficients.
Derives early-time fixed point structure and late-time asymptotics for spin density attractors in generalized second-order spin hydrodynamics using Zubarev's formalism in the spin probe limit.
Fermi-Dirac statistics in boost-invariant perfect spin hydrodynamics produce evolution differences about one order of magnitude smaller than spin-feedback corrections, with special functions conveniently parametrized.
The review summarizes developments in spin hydrodynamics, polarization from spin-vorticity coupling, pseudo-gauge freedom, and heavy-flavor spin dynamics in relativistic systems.
