Abstract
The equations of radiative hydrodynamics, with inclusion of relaxation terms and couplings between the radiative flux, viscous stresses and the acceleration and angular velocity of the medium, are derived from the 14- moment approximation. The physical mechanism responsible for the bulk viscosity is discussed.Keywords
