Abstract
A new method for constructing the relativistic Grad polynomials employed in relativistic kinetic theory is presented. It simplifies considerably the labor involved in their construction compared to previous methods and at the same time exhibits orthogonality properties between the components of the polynomials that were not apparent from the forms obtained by these earlier methods.Keywords
