Abstract
The density dependence of the viscosity coefficient of a dilute fully-ionized plasma is obtained. We associate the viscosity coefficient η with the autocorrelation function of the off-diagonal elements of the stress tensor. The technique used is essentially equivalent to that used in a previous paper by the authors. The result of our analysis is η = Σ m = 1 ∞ U m ( T ) × ( ln ρ ) - m , where the U m ( T ) are the solutions to well-defined algebraic equations. If one Sonine polynomial is used, the shear viscosity is given by η = d 1 ( T ) ln ρ + d 2 ( T ) - 1 .
