This work is concerned with the relaxation-time limit of the multidimensional isothermal Euler equations with relaxation. We show that Coulombel-Goudon's results (2007) can hold in the weaker and more general Sobolev space of fractional order. The method of proof used is the Littlewood-Paley decomposition.
