It then follows a similar approach to the way Einstein (1905] evaluated the diffusion coefficient of Brownian particles (leading to the Stokes-Einstein relation) to similarly evaluate the long term diffusion coefficient of the suspended particles. In contrast to Brownian motion, the analogue of temperature in the equation of state which relates pressure to particle density is not the kinetic energy per unit particle mass.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-09-19T16:36:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "particle pressure", "suspension", "long term diffusion coefficient", "clausius virial theorem", "unit particle mass" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1409.5714R" } } }
