The way a relativistic system approaches fluid dynamical behaviour can be understood physically through the signals that will contribute to its linear response to perturbations. What these signals are is captured in the analytic structure of the retarded correlation function. The non-analyticities can be grouped into three types based on their dimension in the complex frequency plane. In this paper, we will use kinetic theory to find how we can calculate their corresponding signals. In the most general case of a system with particles that have a continuum of thermalization rates, we find that a non-analytic region appears. To calculate its signal, we introduce the non-analytic area density that describes the properties of this region, and we construct a method to calculate it. Further, to take into account the ambiguity present in signal analysis, following from manipulations of the non-analyticities, we will identify two specific choices called pictures with interesting analytic properties and compare in what scenarios each picture is most useful.

The Lorentzian geometry of relaxation
Causality forces purely relaxational dispersion relations to follow spacelike trajectories on the Lorentzian {iω,ik} plane, producing universal bounds on diffusivity, viscosity, time-dilation deviations, and hydrodyna...

How Lorentz boosts reshape relaxation spectra
Under an Onsager-type symmetry, boosted k=0 non-hydrodynamic relaxation rates of a relativistic fluid are bounded by a(1-v)/γ ≤ iω' ≤ b/[γ(1-v)] in terms of rest-frame bounds a,b and boost speed v.

The quasi-normal modes of relativistic Fokker-Planck kinetic theory
The quasi-normal spectrum of ultrarelativistic Fokker-Planck kinetic theory consists of an exact diffusive hydrodynamic mode, continuous ballistic bands, and a hydrogenic discrete tower in three dimensions.
