    Brownian motion approach to the ideal gas of relativistic particles

    The relativistic generalization of a free Brownian motion theory is presented. The global characteristics of the relaxation are {\it explicitly} found for the velocity and momentum (stochastic) kinetics. It is shown that the thermal corrections, to the both relaxation times TT (of stationary autocorrelations) and transient relaxation time of momentum, appear slowing down the processes. The transient relaxation time of the velocity does not depend {\it explicitly} on temperature, T(v0)=m(v0)/γϵ0/γc2T(v_0)= m(v_0)/\gamma \equiv \epsilon_0/\gamma c^2, and it is proportional to the initial energy of a relativistic Brownian particle.Comment: 4 fig
