First-order spin magnetohydrodynamics
Abstract
Based on recent papers, we discuss the formulation of the first-order relativistic spin magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) with the totally antisymmetric spin current and properties of the anisotropic linear waves awaken near an equilibrium configuration. We show that there appears a critical angle in the momentum direction of the linear waves, where a pair of propagating modes turns into purely diffusive modes. Due to this critical behavior, polynomial solutions do not fully capture the angle dependence of the linear waves.
