Shock waves in relativistic anisotropic hydrodynamics

Abstract Shock wave solutions in anisotropic relativistic hydrodynamics are analysed. A new phenomenon of anisotropy-related angular deflection of the incident flow by the shock wave front is described. Patterns of velocity and momentum transformation by the shock wave front are described.
