Relativistic Boltzmann theory for a plasma

H. Van Erkelens

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 1982, vol. 116, issue 3, 499-515

Abstract: Expressions are given for the space attenuation coefficient of hydromagnetic waves in a relativistic plasma. By taking into account all transport processes known from the Chapman-Enskog procedure a hitherto unnoticed dissipative effect is found. A comparison is made with the attenuation of sound waves in relativistic neutral gases.
