Abstract
By integrating a single-time relativistic quantum transport equation o ver momentum, we derive the hydrodynamic equation of motion from a qua ntum field theory including full spin structure of Dirac particles. Th e results are the continuity equation, energy equation and the general ized force law of a relativistic plasma. The equation of velocity fiel d and spin density show however more complex structures than those der ived from quantum mechanics.
