Abstract: The relativistic generalization of fluctuation-dissipation-theorems for a dilute relativistic gas are derived both on the level of the relativistic Boltzmann-Langevin equation and of the relativistic hydrodynamics. The second moments of the fluctuating heat flow and stress-tensor are calculated by two different approaches analogous to the methods of Fox and Uhlenbeck and Landau and Lifshitz. The results are the naturally covariant generalization of the nonrelativistic results of these authors.
