In this paper we calculate the shear-induced self and gradient diffusivities in a dilute bidisperse suspension of hard spheres. Unlike the interaction of identical spheres, the center of mass of a pair of unequally sized spheres does not translate with the imposed shear flow and hence the radial and

A simple functional representation of the concentration dependence of the low-shear viscosity eta of hard sphere suspensions is proposed. The representation, which agrees with published literature at all volume fractions phi, has a hitherto-unremarked transition in its functional form at phi approxi
The selfdiffusion coefficient (0) of a hard sphere of variable sire and mass, moving in a solvent of hard spheres of fved size and mass, is calculated in a version of the ring approximation (RA). It is found that (a) the ring contribution to D vanishes for particles smaller or less massive than the
