Description
The bulk viscosity arising from neutrino absorption by neutrons, and electron capture by protons, is calculated for arbitrary degeneracy of the leptons. These reactions are the primary processes determining the bulk viscosity of collapsing stellar cores. In this context the value found is of the order of 1024 g cm-1s-1. (orig.)
