At a baryon density of the order of 1039 cm-3, the most important dissipative term in the fluid stress tensor is the second coefficient of viscosity which represents a relaxation effect connected with the non-leptonic weak interaction Σ - p rightleftharpoons nn. In the decay of turbulence the power dissipated through the second viscosity is proportional to the sixth power of the r.m.s. turbulent velocity, and the characteristic time is of the order of 10-2 s. The development and dissipation of turbulence in the late stages of gravitational collapse of a rapidly rotating system could be an efficient mechanism for the conversion of gravitational to other forms of energy.
