An analytical representation of the relativistic Boltzmann distribution, the J\”uttner distribution, is provided under conditions when the pressure (or temperature) is anisotropic. Since the pressure becomes a tensor in this case, the relativistic temperature and its inverse become tensors as well. Such conditions are encountered in relativistically-high-temperature plasmas. The distribution is constructed for Bosons by reference to the Klein-Gordon representation of the relativistic energy and introducing an appropriate split.
