Abstract
The longitudinal viscosity is obtained for a two-dimensional (2D) liquid using a Green-Kubo method with a molecular dynamics simulation. The interparticle potential used has the Debye-H\"{u}ckel or Yukawa form, which models a 2D dusty plasma. The longitudinal and shear viscosities are found to have values that match very closely, with only negligible differences for the entire range of temperatures that is considered. The bulk viscosity is determined to be either negligibly small or not a meaningful transport coefficient, for a 2D Yukawa liquid.
