In this work we provide analytic and numerical solutions for the Bjorken
flow, a standard benchmark in relativistic hydrodynamics providing a simple model
for the bulk evolution of matter created in collisions between heavy nuclei.
We consider relativistic gases of both massive and massless particles, working in
a (2+1) and (3+1) Minkowski space-time coordinate system. The numerical results
from a recently developed lattice kinetic scheme show excellent agreement with the
analytic solutions.
