Explore the fundamental principles of relativistic hydrodynamics in this comprehensive lecture by Luciano Rezzolla. Delve into the complex interplay between fluid dynamics and special relativity, examining how the behavior of fluids changes at velocities approaching the speed of light. Gain insights into the mathematical formulations and physical concepts that underpin this advanced field of study, essential for understanding astrophysical phenomena such as neutron stars, quark-gluon plasmas, and relativistic jets. Enhance your knowledge of fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and relativity as you navigate through this nearly three-hour deep dive into the fascinating world of relativistic hydrodynamics.
