In this paper we review recent progress in relativistic anisotropic hydrodynamics. We begin with a pedagogical introduction to the topic which takes into account the advances in our understanding of this topic since its inception. We consider both conformal and non-conformal systems and demonstrate how one can implement a realistic equation of state using a quasiparticle approach. We then consider the inclusion of non-spheroidal (non-ellipsoidal) corrections to leading-order anisotropic hydrodynamics and present the findings of the resulting second-order viscous anisotropic hydrodynamics framework. We compare the results obtained in both the conformal and non-conformal cases with exact solutions to the Boltzmann equation and demonstrate that, in all known cases, anisotropic hydrodynamics best reproduces the exact solutions. Based on this success, we then discuss the phenomenological application of anisotropic hydrodynamics. Along these lines, we review techniques which can be used to convert a momentum-space anisotropic fluid into hadronic degrees of freedom by generalizing the original idea of Cooper-Frye freeze-out to momentum-space anisotropic systems. And, finally, we present phenomenological results of 3+1d quasiparticle anisotropic hydrodynamic simulations and compare them to experimental data produced in 2.76 TeV Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC. Our results indicate that anisotropic hydrodynamics provides a promising framework for describing the dynamics of the momentum-space anisotropic QGP created in heavy-ion collisions.

Exact solutions for the moments of the binary collision integral and its relation to the relaxation-time approximation in leading-order anisotropic fluid dynamics
Exact hard-sphere moments of the nonlinear collision integral for anisotropic distributions show the relaxation-time approximation relaxes roughly twice as fast as true binary collisions, and a two-moment closure reso...

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

Onset of Bjorken Flow in Quantum Evolution of the Massive Schwinger Model
In the 1+1D massive Schwinger model, tensor network simulation of a localized excitation reveals Bjorken-like hydrodynamic flow for small fermion mass, but not for large mass.

Attractor of hydrodynamic attractors
Second- and higher-order hydrodynamic attractors converge to the same universal curve before the Navier-Stokes limit, with the leading correction controlled only by second-order coefficients.

Effective temperatures of the QGP from thermal photon and dilepton production
In the Trajectum model, dilepton effective temperatures reliably track the quark-gluon plasma temperature, while photon effective temperatures are biased by flow and stay near 250-300 MeV.

Quantum thermalization of Quark-Gluon Plasma
In a 1+1D Schwinger model, strong-coupling quark Wigner functions thermalize to quantum statistical averages, while weak-coupling scalar and axial components do not because of many-body scars, and the θ-vacuum angle c...

A simple family of solutions of relativistic viscous hydrodynamics for fireballs with Hubble flow and ellipsoidal symmetry
A new family of exact analytic viscous hydrodynamic solutions is derived for Hubble-flow fireballs, in which shear viscosity cancels and only bulk viscosity affects the temperature evolution.
