Thermodynamics of relativistic systems

W. Israel

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 1981, vol. 106, issue 1, 204-214

Abstract: This paper will review recent progress in the covariant formulation of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, with emphasis on two topics: (i) a consistent treatment of transient effects which avoids the paradox of an infinite speed of heat, and (ii) the thermodynamics of black holes.
