Relativistic heat conduction

ID: relativistic-heat-conduction

Relativistic heat conduction refers to the study of heat transfer processes within the framework of relativity, specifically special relativity. In classical thermodynamics and heat conduction, the assumptions made generally rely on non-relativistic speeds and classical physics principles. However, when considering systems that may involve significant fractions of the speed of light or strong gravitational fields, these classical assumptions break down.
