Abstract: The article proposes a causal five-field formulation of dissipative relativistic fluid dynamics as a quasilinear symmetric hyperbolic system of second order. The system is determined by four dissipation coefficients $\eta ,\zeta ,\kappa ,\mu$, free functions of the fields, which quantify shear viscosity, bulk viscosity, heat conductivity, and diffusion.
