Investigation of resonant layer response in electron viscosity regime

We present a supplementary study of previous work in Waybright and Park [Phys. Plasmas 31, 022502 (2024)] which demonstrates a substantial effect of electron viscosity on the resonant layer response to non-axisymmetric magnetic perturbations. A main refinement is to include a curl element of electron viscosity in the generalized Ohm's law. The refinement reveals a resonant layer response in the Electron Viscosity (EV) regime corresponding to slowly rotating and highly viscous plasmas.
