Treumann, Rudolf A. und Baumjohann, Wolfgang (2016): Anisotropic Juttner (relativistic Boltzmann) distribution. In: Annales Geophysicae, Bd. 34, Nr. 9: S. 737-738

Abstract

A rigorous derivation of the Juttner (covariant Boltzmann) distribution is provided for anisotropic pressure (or temperature) tensors. It was in similar form anticipated first by Gladd (1983). Its manifestly covariant version follows straightforwardly from its scalar property.
