Numerical Hydrodynamics in Special Relativity

TL;DR: This review is concerned with a discussion of numerical methods for the solution of the equations of special relativistic hydrodynamics (SRHD), and particular emphasis is put on a comprehensive review of the application of high-resolution shock-capturing methods in SRHD.

Relativistic hydrodynamics

TL;DR: Relativistic hydrodynamics is essential to our current understanding of nucleus-nucleus collisions at ultra-relativists energies as discussed by the authors, and it has been used in a number of experiments at the CERN Large Hadron Collider.

Relativistic transport theory

TL;DR: In this article, a general relativistic form of the Boltzmann transport equation is developed for particles or radiation interacting with an external medium, which can be used to study radiative transfer in strong, timevarying gravitational fields.

Parallel, grid-adaptive approaches for relativistic hydro and magnetohydrodynamics

TL;DR: An overview of state-of-the-art modeling in special relativistic regimes, targeting strong shock-dominated flows with speeds approaching the speed of light is presented, and one such code is highlighted, MPI-AMRVAC (Message-Passing Interface-Adaptive Mesh Refinement Versatile Advection Code).
