Abstract

A general relativistic time-relaxation model is introduced and compared with the relativistic Boltzmann equation. It is proved that the model has the same features (formal properties of linear operator, positive transport coefficients, etc.) of the Boltzmann equation. It is also shown that the phase speed of infinitesimal disturbances, propagating in a gas described by our model, is less than the speed of light.
