Hyperbolic theories of dissipation: Why and when do we need them?

Abstract: We illustrate and emphasize the relevance of hyperbolic theories of dissipation in different physical scenarios. Particular attention is paid to self-gravitating systems where the relaxation time may become large enough as to require a description of the transient regime. It is argued that even outside that regime, hyperbolic theories may be needed to provide an accurate description of dissipative processes. * Postal address:

“…In a very broad sense, we are mainly interested in time scales whose order may be smaller or equal to the radiation time. During the study of transport equations for dissipative variables, we have preferred to use the hyperbolic theory of dissipation because this theory is more reliable than that of parabolic theory and have less difficulties as in parabolic theory arise [8], [49]- [51].…”
