Abstract

The transport coefficients induced by the Anderson-Witting approximation of the collision term in the relativistic Boltzmann equation are derived for close to equilibrium flows in general relativity. Using the tetrad formalism, it is shown that the expression for these coefficients is the same as that obtained on flat space-time, in agreement with the generalized equivalence principle.<br />Comment: 6 pages, 1 figure, proceedings of TIM 15-16 conference (26-28 May 2016, Timisoara, Romania)
