Abstract

The attention paid to dissipative phenomena in cosmology and astrophysics is steadily increasing. The interaction between matter and radiation leads to dissipative effects which are of importance in the study of the evolution of the Universe and the survival of proto-galaxies. In astrophysics, in particular, the thermal conductivity and the viscosity of a gas of neutrinos play a role in phenomena like stellar collapse. These observations have motivated the formulation of a relativistic no-nequilibrium thermodynamic theory.
