Covariant linear response theory for a photon gas in curved spacetime
Jianan Wang, Long Cui, Bin Wu
To overcome the failure of the conventional non-relativistic description of statistics in strong gravitational fields, we develop a covariant theory for a photon gas in curved spac…
Geometric formulation for the relativistic kinetic theory of photons
Yifan Cai, Long Cui, Bin Wu +1
We provide a geometric foundation for the kinetic theory of photons. Although the induced metric on the light cone bundle is degenerate, which causes the correspon…
Linear response in a charged gas in curved spacetime and covariant heat equation
Long Cui, Xin Hao, Liu Zhao
We consider the linear response of a near-equilibrium charged relativistic gas in the presence of electromagnetic and gravitational field in a generic stationary spacetime up to th…
General relativistic stochastic thermodynamics
Tao Wang, Yifan Cai, Long Cui +1
Based on the recent work [1,2], we formulate the first law and the second law of stochastic thermodynamics in the framework of general relativity. These laws are established for a…
A general relativistic kinetic theory approach to linear transport in generic hydrodynamic frame
Long Cui, Xin Hao, Liu Zhao
In this study, we investigate the linear transport of neutral system within the framework of relativistic kinetic theory. Under the relaxation time approximation, we obtain an iter…
