On the relative importance of second-order terms in relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics

Understand

In Denicol et al., Phys.

• Rev.
• D 85, 114047 (2012), the equations of motion of relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics were derived from the relativistic Boltzmann equation.
• These equations contain a multitude of terms of second order in Knudsen number, in inverse Reynolds number, or their product.
