Relativistic quantum fluid with boost invariance

We study a relativistic fluid with longitudinal boost invariance in a quantum-statistical framework as an example of a solvable nonequilibrium problem. For the free quantum field, we calculate the exact form of the expectation values of the stress-energy tensor and the entropy current. For the stress-energy tensor, we find that a finite value can be obtained only by subtracting the vacuum of the density operator at some fixed proper time τ0. As a consequence, the stress-energy tensor acquires nontrivial quantum corrections to the classical free-streaming form.
