Abstract
The viscosity of a fully ionized plasma in a magnetic field is analyzed from two points of view: first, from a consideration of particle orbits; and second, from the solution of a simplified Boltzmann equation. These semiquantitative methods are studied in order to clarify the behavior of the viscosity coefficients.Keywords
