Relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics finds widespread applications in high-energy nuclear physics and astrophysics. However, formulating a causal and stable theory of relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics is far from trivial; efforts to accomplish this reach back more than 50 years. In this review, we give an overview of the field and attempt a comparative assessment of (at least most of) the theories for relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics proposed until today and used in applications.

  3. Dispersion relations of relativistic radiation hydrodynamics

    astro-ph.HE 2024-11 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    The paper derives analytic formulas for the damping and propagation of shear, heat, and sound waves in relativistic matter-plus-grey-radiation fluids, including a new sound-wave formula.

  4. Perturbations of relativistic dissipative stars

    gr-qc 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Linearized perturbations of relativistic stars with BDNK viscosity reduce to two coupled wave equations in the axial sector and five coupled wave equations plus a constraint in the polar sector, including a new viscous mode.

  5. Gaussian non relativistic spontaneously stochastic hydrodynamics

    physics.flu-dyn 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper proposes that non-relativistic incompressible hydrodynamics is the infrared limit of a Gaussian stochastic theory, with compressible-scale counterterms generating spontaneous stochasticity and anomalous dissipation.

  6. Vector-Meson Spin Alignment from Anisotropic Quark or Hadron Coalescence

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Anisotropic quark or hadron coalescence in heavy-ion collisions generates vector-meson spin alignment whose sign distinguishes bare-vector from spin-orbit-coupled production vertices.

  7. The diffusion equation is compatible with special relativity

    gr-qc 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A relativistic kinetic theory (Vlasov–Fokker–Planck) has an exact subsector whose particle density evolves by Fick's law at all wavelengths, reconciling diffusion with causality and stability.

  8. Is the shear induced spin polarization non-dissipative?

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Shear-induced spin polarization leaves the momentum-integrated entropy production rate unchanged in chiral kinetic theory, but Zubarev's linear response suggests a dissipative origin.

  9. Mapping Sparse Triangular Solves to GPUs via Fine-grained Domain Decomposition

    cs.PF 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    A domain-decomposition scheme sizes subdomains to GPU shared memory to remove synchronization from sparse triangular solves, reporting 10.7x and 3.2x speedups for triangular solves and ILU0-BiCGSTAB on the AMD MI210.

  10. Causality of polarizeable dissipative fluids from Lagrangian hydrodynamics

    nucl-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a Lagrangian model of polarized dissipative fluids, causality couples the spin, shear, and bulk relaxation times through inequalities that can make polarization mask viscosity.

  11. Thermal dilepton production within conformal viscous Gubser flow

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Thermal dilepton yields and effective temperatures are computed for conformal viscous Gubser flow, showing larger yields for lower q (larger systems) and higher effective temperatures for smaller systems.

  12. Quasiparticle second-order dissipative hydrodynamics at finite chemical potential

    A quasiparticle kinetic theory with a bag term yields second-order equations of relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics with baryon diffusion and chemical-potential-dependent transport coefficients.

    A covariant Boltzmann equation with one relaxation time yields L/L0 = (3/pi^2)(h/(k_BT))^2 for both graphene and QGP, so the Wiedemann-Franz law fails as the net carrier density approaches zero.
