Description
We summarize here calculations of transport coefficients for plasma interacting through strong, electromagnetic, and weak interactions to leading order in the interaction strength, including rates of momentum and thermal relaxation, electrical conductivity, and viscosities of quark-gluon and electrodynamic plasmas. We discuss consequences for ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions and neutron stars. (orig.)
