| contents | In this work, we have calculated the transport coefficients: shear viscosity and thermal conductivity inside the neutron star core. Our calculation is based on the relativistic kinetic theory approach using a modified BUU equation for quasi-particles whose mass and the chemical-potential and thus in turn the Fermi surface varies with the baryonic density $ρ_{B}$ and the temperature of the medium, and we have used the relaxation time approximation. For the description of the hadronic matter inside the neutron star, we consider the relativistic mean field model with three different kinds of parameterizations. We have found that the shear viscosity is predominantly influenced by neutrons, while thermal conductivity is primarily dominated by electrons. |
