Fluid dynamics on Finsler spacetimes — •Manuel Hohmann — Institut für Physik, Universität Tartu, Estland

I discuss the description of fluid dynamics in the language of Finsler spacetime geometry. Such a description is an important ingredient for gravity theories based on Finsler geometry. The description I present here is based on the kinetic theory of fluids on the tangent bundle of spacetime. In my talk I introduce the basic geometric concepts and provide illustrative examples, in particular for fluids with cosmological symmetry.
