Abstract

The dynamic structure factor of a simple relativistic fluid is calculated. The coupling of acceleration with the heat flux present in Eckart's version of irreversible relativistic thermodynamics is examined using the Rayleigh-Brillouin spectrum of the fluid. A modification of the width of the Rayleigh peak associated to Eckart's picture of the relativistic nature of heat is predicted and estimated.
