| Sumario: | In this paper we address the derivation of causal relativistic hydrodynamics, formulated within the framework of divergence type theories (DTTs), from kinetic theory for spinless particles obeying Fermi-Dirac statistics. The approach leads to expressions for the particle current and energy momentum tensor that are formally divergent, but may be given meaning through a process of regularization and renormalization. We demonstrate the procedure through an analysis of the stability of an homogeneous anisotropic configuration. In the DTT framework, as in kinetic theory, these configurations are stable. By contrast, hydrodynamics as derived from the Grad approximation would predict that highly anisotropic configurations are unstable. © 2017 American Physical Society. |
