We provide a pedagogical review article on fundamentals and applications of the quantum

Many novel quantum phenomena emerge in non-equilibrium relativistic quantum matter
under extreme conditions such as strong magnetic fields and rotations. The quantum kinetic …

We study the spin polarization generated by the hydrodynamic gradients. In addition to the
widely studied thermal vorticity effects, we identify an undiscovered contribution from the …

A bstract Using the second law of local thermodynamics and the first-order Palatini
formalism, we formulate relativistic spin hydrodynamics for quantum field theories with Dirac …

We derive the Boltzmann equation and the collision kernel for massive spin-1/2 particles,
using the Wigner-function formalism and employing an expansion in powers of ℏ. The …

We derive relativistic second-order dissipative fluid-dynamical equations of motion for
massive spin-1/2 particles from kinetic theory using the method of moments. Besides the …

We derive the collision term in the Boltzmann equation using the equation of motion for the
Wigner function of massive spin-1/2 particles. To next-to-lowest order in ℏ, it contains a …

We discuss a puzzle in relativistic spin hydrodynamics; in the previous formulation the spin
source from the antisymmetric part of the canonical energy-momentum tensor (EMT) is …

We derive equations of motion for dissipative spin hydrodynamics from kinetic theory up to
first order in a gradient expansion. Choosing a specific form of the matching conditions …

We derive Boltzmann equations for massive spin-1/2 fermions with local and nonlocal
collision terms from the Kadanoff-Baym equation in the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism …
