Description

We present the transport coefficients of quark matter, gluon matter and a quark anti-quark mixture, as they arise from relativistic kinetic theory. The results for the simple quark and gluon system are comparable with values obtained from similar calculations in the literature, and we present the interesting kinetic coefficients of a quark anti-quark mixture. The divergent scattering integrals are solved by introducing Coulomb logarithms, their evaluation is discussed. (orig.)
