Relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics finds widespread applications in high-energy nuclear physics and astrophysics. However, formulating a causal and stable theory of relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics is far from trivial; efforts to accomplish this reach back more than 50 years. In this review, we give an overview of the field and attempt a comparative assessment of (at least most of) the theories for relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics proposed until today and used in applications.

  1. Nonlinear Causality and Strong Hyperbolicity of Einstein-Israel-Stewart Theories of Transient Relativistic Fluid Dynamics

    nucl-th 2026-07 accept novelty 8.0

    Necessary and sufficient algebraic inequalities fully characterize nonlinear causality of general Israel-Stewart bulk-plus-shear theories, with sufficient conditions for strong hyperbolicity and constraint propagation...

  2. Gaussian non relativistic spontaneously stochastic hydrodynamics

    physics.flu-dyn 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    The paper proposes that non-relativistic incompressible hydrodynamics is the infrared limit of a Gaussian stochastic theory, with compressible-scale counterterms generating spontaneous stochasticity and anomalous dissipation.

  3. Vector-Meson Spin Alignment from Anisotropic Quark or Hadron Coalescence

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Anisotropic quark or hadron coalescence in heavy-ion collisions generates vector-meson spin alignment whose sign distinguishes bare-vector from spin-orbit-coupled production vertices.

  4. Observable Dependence of Viscous Corrections in QGP: Heavy Quarks and Dileptons in Chapman--Enskog Theory

    nucl-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Second-order Chapman-Enskog viscous corrections suppress heavy-quark drag, induce nontrivial transverse diffusion, and boost early-time dilepton yields relative to first-order or Grad corrections, with the size of the...

  5. Radial Oscillations of Viscous Stars at Finite Temperature

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Heat diffusion introduces a distinct thermal mode sector in viscous star oscillations that transitions to propagating behavior above a critical overtone, realizing finite-size relativistic second sound.

  6. Jet Momentum Broadening in Viscous QCD Matter: A Moment Expansion Approach

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The jet broadening tensor qhat^ij in near-equilibrium QCD is controlled by the medium shear-stress tensor within the 14-moment approximation.

  7. Weyl anomaly induced transport in hydrodynamics

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The Weyl anomaly induces a new non-dissipative current in accelerated fluids that fixes the electromagnetic-acceleration coupling at second order in hydrodynamics.

  8. Species-dependent viscous corrections at particlization: A novel relaxation time approximation approach

    nucl-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A new RTA form with counter-terms yields species-dependent first-order viscous corrections that modify light-hadron yields and K/π, p/π ratios in p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions.

  9. The diffusion equation is compatible with special relativity

    gr-qc 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0

    A relativistic kinetic theory (Vlasov–Fokker–Planck) has an exact subsector whose particle density evolves by Fick's law at all wavelengths, reconciling diffusion with causality and stability.

    nucl-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    The MUSES Calliope engine computes multi-dimensional QCD equations of state, merges them consistently, and feeds them into viscous hydrodynamic simulations of heavy-ion collisions with movable critical points and crit...
