We present a new numerical method of special relativistic resistive magnetohydrodynamics with scalar resistivity that can treat a range of phenomena, from non-relativistic to relativistic (shock, contact discontinuity, and Alfvén wave). The present scheme calculates the numerical flux of fluid by using an approximate Riemann solver and electromagnetic field by using the method of characteristics. Since this scheme uses appropriate characteristic velocities, it is capable of accurately solving problems that cannot be approximated as ideal magnetohydrodynamics and whose characteristic velocity is much lower than the velocity of light. The numerical results show that our scheme can solve the above problems as well as nearly ideal MHD problems. Our new scheme is particularly well suited to systems with initially weak magnetic field and mixed phenomena of relativistic and non-relativistic velocity, for example magnetorotational instability in an accretion disk and super Alfvénic turbulence.
