Description
We show that, expanding the Euler and continuity equations of relativistic hydrodynamics around equilibrium configurations and then combining them, it is possible to obtain a differential equation known as breaking wave equation. Taking a localized pulse as initial condition, we solve this differential equation numerically and study the propagation of the pulse through hot nuclear matter, described by relativistic mean field models.
