With the help of a semiclassical kinetic theory, a new collision kernel is proposed, which simultaneously conserves the energy-momentum tensor and the spin tensor of a relativistic fluid of spin-1/2 particles irrespective of the frame and matching conditions, even when relaxation time is momentum dependent. The relativistic Boltzmann's equation is solved using this new collision kernel that will lead to the transport coefficients with general definitions for the frame and matching conditions. The results indicate the expected existence of Barnett-like effect and the nonexistence of Einstein–de Haas–like effects. For the first time, a local collision kernel is being proposed that can be used to construct relativistic spin hydrodynamics along the line of Bemfica-Disconzi-Noronha-Kovtun (BDNK) formulation, which may lead to a first-order stable and causal theory.
