Bjorken flow is among the simplest models of fluids moving near the speed of light ($c$) while Carroll symmetry arises as a contraction of Poincar\'{e} group when $c \to 0$. We show that Bjorken flow and its phenomenological approximations are completely captured by Carrollian fluids. Carrollian symmetries arise on generic null surfaces and a fluid moving at $c$ is restricted to such a surface, thereby naturally inheriting the symmetries. Carrollian hydrodynamics is thus not exotic, but rather ubiquitous, and provides a concrete framework for fluids moving at or near the speed of light.

  1. A unified expansion of Einstein's gravity

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    A unified (s,n)-parametrized expansion of the Einstein-Hilbert action yields Galilean, Carroll, Lorentzian, and string Carroll gravity, and near-horizon black hole geometries satisfy the string Carroll equations.

  2. Exact expectation values in a boost-invariant fluid of Dirac fermions with finite spin density

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    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.

  3. Carroll fermions, expansions and the lightcone

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Carrollian fermion actions are obtained from relativistic Dirac theory via c-expansion and connected to light-cone dynamics through co-dimension one Carroll subalgebras in the Poincaré algebra.

  4. Carroll hydrodynamics with spin

    hep-th 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Carroll hydrodynamics with spin is obtained as the c→0 limit of relativistic hydrodynamics with spin, extending the description of boost-invariant flows.

  5. Strings near BTZ black holes: A Carrollian Chronicle

    hep-th 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The paper classifies families of closed bosonic string solutions in the near-horizon non-extremal BTZ spacetime and identifies novel features via string-Carroll expansion.

  6. The Carrollian Kaleidoscope

    hep-th 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 1.0

    A review summarizing Carrollian symmetries, CCFT constructions, and applications in AFS holography, Carroll hydrodynamics, and condensed matter phenomena such as fractons and flat bands.
