Abstract: For an eēvev̄e-mixture, in which the particles interact on the basis of the Weinberg-Salam model, the influence of the reactive eē[harr ]vev̄e collisions on the bulk viscosity is investigated. It is found that the bulk viscosity decreases owing to the occurrence of these reactive collisions. Furthermore it is shown that for a neutral mixture the bulk viscosity is an intermediate effect, i.e. it vanishes in both the low and high temperature regime.
