Dynamical and thermodynamical aspects of second- order relativistic hydrodynamics
In this thesis we study second-order relativistic hydrodynamics particularly in the context of quantum field theory and AdS/CFT. The theory of hydrodynamics can be thought of as an effective theory in derivative expansion. At first order in derivatives, the result is the equations of motion generall...
